You're in My Eyes (Discosong) Songtext

von Jarvis Cocker

Grey floaters inside my eyes.
Visible when you look into a clear blue sky.
Memories of days gone by.
Activated by a mirror-ball shining bright
In a provincial disco on a Thursday night.
You appeared from nowhere, beside me on the floor.
Identical in every detail to the way you were before.
The best part of a decade since you went out of my life.
The worst part of a decade - but here you are tonight: by my side.
You're in my eyes.
You're in my face.
Just like before you went away.
You're in my arms.
I feel your warmth
And I will dance until the dawn.
Cos I don't want to lose you again. Oh no.
No, I don't want to lose you again. Oh no.

A trick of the light - a Disco Hallucination.
A walking dream - an impossible situation.
Oh, but you look real good in your halter-top - don't stop.
Don't disappear; I need you here.
You're in my eyes.
You're in my face.
Just like before you went away.
You're in my arms.
I feel your warmth
And I will dance until the dawn.
Cos I don't want to lose you again. Oh no.
No, I don't want to lose you again. Oh no.

And I don't want this song to ever end
Cos I know if it does you would disappear again.
Let this be forever three a.m.
Caught in a loop that repeats endlessly.
It was the mirror-ball that did it - a chance reflection that sparked you back to life.
Like you'd just been to the bar for a little while
And you smiled and there was nothing in your eyes
Like this silt in mine, making it hard to get around.
I thought you'd gone
But all this timeI'd been carrying you around
In my eyes.
In my eyes.
In my eyes. Oh.
You're in my eyes.
You're in my face.
Just like before you went away.
You're in my arms.
I feel your warmth
And I will dance until the dawn.
Cos I don't want to lose you again. Oh no.
No, I don't want to lose you again. Oh no.
No, I don't want to lose you again.

And one day my eyes will be full.
A snowstorm everytime I shake my head
But that day is not tonight
And if we keep moving - dancing tight
They might never catch us.
I don't want to lose you again.
