Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain why it's right over there.
Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain it, I cannot contain it.

Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain why it's right over there.
Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain it, I cannot contain it.

We'll take a trip to the city
We'll see the sights, all so pretty.
I'll happily count you as one of them.
(I can't take my eyes off you)

We go looking around
We go browsing.
But things quickly get out of hand.

This is not the day that I had planned.

Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain why it's right over there.
Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain it, I cannot contain it.

Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain why it's right over there.
Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain it, I cannot contain it.

Why are you staring at him, when I'm stood over here
And now you're looking at her and it's giving me the fear
That you don't feel about me, the way I do about you.

But now you're gazing at clouds and now you're ogling trees
And now you're peeking at things that are covered in leaves.
Please tell me, is there something I should know?

Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain why it's right over there.
Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain it, I cannot contain it.

Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain why it's right over there.
Forgive my wandering eye
I cannot explain it, I cannot contain it.

Should I put it in my pocket?
Should I keep it on a leash?
Whatever I do it just wants to break free.

It's peering in a window with it's unblinking stare,
It's clearly fascinated with what goes on in there.

Should you wear a pirate's eyepatch to try and restrict it's reach?
Maybe we could distract it if I waved around this peach.

It's peering in a window with it's unblinking stare,
It's clearly fascinated with what goes on in there.
