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
