Brenda Lee - Staring Each Other Down Lyrics

(Chips Moman - Bobby Emmons)

You're hangin' on his arm, she's holdin' mine
A fool must have said love was blind
We're shouting I love you's with people all around
And they don't hear one sound.

Let her eyes do the talkin'
And her eyes do the walkin'
And her eyes do the slipping around
Staring each other down.

And we're both on to how long
A slow song would be for us now
This timebomb we're holding
Is so near exploding right down.

So let her eyes do the talkin'
And eyes do the walkin'
Her eyes do the slipping around
Staring each other down.

Staring each other down...
