I can’t take my eyes off of you

Watched ‘Closer’ with Jude Law, Julia Roberts etc - for the second time. Nasty affairs movie. It begins with a great acoustic piece of music. Look it up.

The Blower’s Daughter - Damien Rice

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can’t take my eyes off of you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes off of you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes…

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We’ll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower’s daughter
The pupil in denial

I can’t take my eyes off of you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes off of you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes…

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can’t take my mind off of you
I can’t take my mind off you
I can’t take my mind off of you
I can’t take my mind off you
I can’t take my mind off you
I can’t take my mind…
My mind… my mind…
‘Til I find somebody new

The twins

And I don’t mean boobs. These little boys were left on the doorstep about 5 months ago and have been making me love them ever since. I may be biased but I think they’re pretty gorgeous. I don’t know where they get that from.
