The Go-Betweens - The devil's eye lyrics

I don't wanna let you out of my sight

don't wanna let you onto your flight.

The fortune teller might have been right

The bad old world can turn your hair white.

And sometimes we don't come through

Sometimes we just get by

but I know with you

I've never seen the devil's eye.

I don't wanna have to say a goodbye

don't wanna wipe the tear from your eye

I took this chance to write a message

It's just to say that I'll miss you.

And sometimes we don't come through

Sometimes we just get by

but I know with you

I've never seen the devil's eye.
