Eye to Eye

Lyrics

Eye to Eye This man dropped by some time ago Looked just like you and me Much the same but at the time Came over differently He wouldn?t look us eye to eye For long enough to see What made him that bit different Though he looked like you and me The good old days are gone now Days gone by When strangers met and squared off Eye to eye Hands were taken, shaken warm To welcome strangers in Strangers looked the same as you and I. This same man came some time ago Who looked like you and me Stayed half a year nearby us Coming over differently He not once looked us in the eye Or liked a photo took What made him that bit different Was the way he didn?t look The good old days are gone now Days gone by When strangers met and squared off Eye to eye Hands were taken, shaken warm To welcome strangers in Strangers looked the same as you and I. Oh the house-of-prayer just down the road Blew up the other night Bombed to bits and when news broke Guess who had taken flight This man dropped by some time ago Looked just like you and me Much the same but at the time Came over differently He never looked us in the eye For long enough to see What made him that bit different Though he looked like you and me Yes those good old days are gone now Days gone by Hell, those good old days are gone now Days gone by Ain?t it sad those days are gone now Days gone by When strangers met and squared off Eye to eye Two strangers met and squared off Eye to eye Eye to eye Eye to eye
