Cover My Eyes

(album: La Roux - 2009)

No wonder I'm scared to look in your eyes
You've turned me away so many times
You can take it away at any given moment
It's hard to believe while you're in this disguise

So would you hold me please?
I'm trying hard to breath
I'm just surviving
So would you hold me please?
I'm trying hard to breath
Stop me from crying

When I see you walking with her
I have to cover my eyes
Every time you leave with her
Something inside of me dies

No wonder it hurts to sit by your side
(Turned me away so many times)
There's a different song I can play you tonight
(We don't have to sit here in silence)
We can break the pattern, we can change the color
(It's just a little sacrifice)
You don't need to worry about the others
(It's all in your mind)

So would you hold me please?
I'm trying hard to breath
I'm just surviving
So would you hold me please?
I'm trying hard to breath
Stop me from crying

When I see you walking with her
I have to cover my eyes
Every time you leave with her
Something inside of me dies [repeat 2x]
Something inside me dies

When I see you walking with her
I have to cover my eyes
(cover my eyes, cover my eyes, cover my eyes)
Every time you leave with her
Something inside of me dies
(my eyes) [repeat 2x]
