Staring Each Other Down

(Chips Moman - Bobby Emmons)

 His hanging on your arm he's holding on mine
A fool must have said love is blind
We're shouting I love you with people all around
And they don't hear one sound.

We let our eyes do the talking
 Eyes do the walking
  Eyes do the slipping around
Staring each other down.

 And we're both on to how wrong
A slow song would be for us now
This time bomb we're holding
It's holding it's exploding right now

 So let our eyes do the talking
 Eyes do the walking
  Eyes do our slipping around
Staring each other down.

 And we're both on to how wrong
A slow song would be for us now
This time bomb we're holding
It's holding it's exploding right now

 So let our eyes do the talking
Eyes do the walking
  Eyes do the slipping around
Staring each other down

Were staring each other down
