| We joined up like two brothers on a whim
|
| You were tom sawyer I was huckleberry finn
|
| We made it seem like a picnic in the sunshine
|
| We said «what the hell»
|
| Signed on the dotted line
|
| But your eyes
|
| You left them on an island
|
| Somewhere in an ocean
|
| Somewhere far from home
|
| Now I’m your eyes
|
| Someone said «watch every step you take»
|
| Way out here all you get is one mistake
|
| A night patrol and I did not see the wire
|
| And all I remember is the whole world caught on fire
|
| And my legs
|
| I left them in a jungle
|
| Somewhere on an island
|
| Somewhere far away
|
| I might have even prayed
|
| And now that we’re heroes
|
| I’ll keep these medals shiny and lookin' sweet
|
| And I’ll read to you
|
| All of the news from home
|
| Get a dog, you can push me down the street
|
| A compromise your legs, my eyes
|
| I’ll be your eyes
|
| Your eyes
|
| Your eyes
|
| Your eyes |
