I can do what I want
I'm in complete control
That's what I tell myself
I gotta a mind of my own
I'll be alright alone
Don't need anybody else
I gave myself a good talking to
No more bein' a fool for you
But I see ya
And all I remember
How you make me want to surrender
Damn your eyes
For taking my breath away
Makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For gettin' my hopes up high
Making me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
It's always the same
You say that you'll change
Somehow you never do
I believe all your lies
The look in your eyes
You make it all seem true
I guess I see what I want to see
Or is it my heart just deceivin' me?
Because with that look I know so well
I fall completely under your spell
Damn your eyes
For takin' my breath away
For makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For gettin' my hopes up high
For makin' me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
You keep deliberately deceivin' me
Makin' me see what I want to see
Damn your eyes
For takin' my breath away, hey
For makin' me want to stay
Damn your eyes
For getting'my hopes up high
For making me fall in love again
Damn your eyes
Damn your eyes
For taking my breath away
Damn damn your eyes
For getting my hopes up high
For making me fall in love
Fall in love again
Damn damn your eyes
