Eye to Eye Lyrics


I wanna get close
Wanna spend my time with you
We gotta sit down and talk
Got to see things eye to eyeShe didn't love me
I tried to tell her but I couldn't begin
It's not a thing that takes a moment
I'm coming over, better let me come inI wanna get close
Wanna spend my time with you
We gotta sit down and talk
Got to see things eye to eyeYou'll understand me
A lot better when the picture's all clear
I'm yours and anyway you want me
Move over 'cause it's lonely over hereI wanna get close
Wanna spend my time with you
We gotta sit down and talk
Got to see things eye to eyeYou've got no choice
You've got no say when it comes 'round
I'm gonna jump down, don't walk away

We've got to see things eye to eyeThere was something when I met you
There was something in the words we didn't say
It was something that we both knew
It was something that don't happen every dayI wanna get close
Wanna spend my time with you
We gotta sit down and talk
Got to see things eye to eyeYou've got no choice
You've got no say when it comes round
I'm gonna jump down, don't walk away
We've got to see things eye to eyeEye to eye, eye to eye

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The Outfield are an arena rock-influenced British pop rock/power pop power trio based in the East End of London, England. It's members are bassist/singer Tony Lewis, guitarist/keyboardist and songwriter John Spinks, and drummer Alan Jackman. Originally known as the 'Baseball Boys' before singing with Columbia/CBS Records in 1984, they are unusual for a British band in that they enjoyed commercial success in the U.S. but never reached the album or singles charts in their homeland.

They began recording during the mid-1980s, and they released their first album, Play Deep, in 1985 through Columbia Records. The album reached #9 on the Billboard 200 list and then reached triple platinum in America. Their single "Your Love" reached #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as #7 on the Mainstream Rock chart, and it became their signature song. It went on to be featured in a number of 80s-themed compilation albums, and over 1,000 covers and remixes by other artists have been released physically and/or online. The other singles "Say It Isn't So" and "Everytime You Cry" also made it into the top 20 on the Mainstream Rock chart.

The band continued to record and tour through the 1980s and then into the early 1990s. While their second album, Bangin', hit the top 20 on the Billboard 200 list had both singles hit the Top 40 Mainstream Rock chart, the group began losing their popular audience by their third album, Voices of Babylon, in 1989. Drummer Alan Jackman left and, now as a duo, they recorded Diamond Days in 1991. After the disappointing response to their 1992 album Rockeye, which represented a shift towards progressive rock and arena rock, the group essentially disbanded in the 90s. They resumed touring in 1998, and thereafter released two live albums via their website. The band's latest album, Any Time Now, was released by Sidewinder Records in March 2006 and constituted a comeback to their traditional pop rock sound. In mid-2009, the Outfield entered a London studio to begin recording their 7th studio album. Although popular interest in the band has waned since their 80s musical heyday, their group had maintained a devoted fan base among followers of the power pop genre.
