La Roux - Cover My Eyes Lyrics






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]

  36. O.... M....

    this song brings back bad memories. a time in my life i dont wish on anyone, but one from which i learned, i grew and became a better man for.

    You know what's incredible? I was listening to Beyond Creation (a Technical Death Metal band) and YouTube suggested this to me. I fuckin' love it.

    I listen to practically all genres (Metal, Synthpop, Post-Rock, Shoegaze, DSBM, Electronic, etc.), but this... THIS... UGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH. That voice. That sweet, beautiful melody. GOD, I LOVE IT.

  87. E.... W....

    lulz ringtone for my ex

  88. U.... F....

    Great song, liked it at first hearing

  89. M.... S....

    I dont understand what I did to deserve this, we all get broken hearted in our lifes. I gave everything to you Jonathan. Months of me being there and I gave it my al and done so much for you and sacrificed a lot and in the end you used me. You played me. I know the kind of person you are. But I still cant get over you. Knowing youre talking to other people and acting like nothing ever happened and Im just here alone. Time heals. But I want you out of my mind.

  90. J.... B....

    try ultimate guitar? Only has chords but the riff should be fairly easy to figure out!

  91. P.... F....

    She is said to be releasing a new album this summer.
