(Verse)

Hey, baby, can you see me

I’ve been standin’ here a while

But I don’t think you’ve noticed me at all

Tryin’ to get your attention

And break out of my daydream

Where you trip right over my love and you fall

But, never mind, I’ll try another day… 

(Chorus 1)

I envy most of those little things

That can’t hear me plead or hear me scream

With a voice so strained

They say some things, money can’t buy

But I’d pay them pretty blue eyes

To look my way

To look my way 

(Verse)

Yeah, I’ve seen the type you talk to

And so I’ve also seen you cry

Something’s missin’, you can’t help yourself 

And I feel the window’s closin’

Once the night air gets too cold

Have you ever thought of tryin’ something else

But, anyway, you do just what you do… 

(Chorus 2)

And this life out here on the road

Tell yourself that you’re not alone

On the dark highway 

How many songs does a man gotta write

Just to get them pretty blue eyes

To look my way

To look my way 

(Chorus 3) 

I wonder if expectations age

If or when they ever go away

Or just stay in place

Once it’s too late, then I just might

Ask both of them pretty blue eyes

To look my way

To look my way

(Chorus 1) 

(Outro) 

So go on and tell them pretty blue eyes to look my way

Baby, look my way
