If I had eyes in the back of my head
I would have told you that
You looked good
As I walked away

And if you could've tried to trust the hand that fed
You would've never been hungry
But you never really be

The more of this or less of this or is there any difference
Or are we just holding onto the things we don't have anymore

Sometimes time doesn't heal
No not at all
Just stand still
While we fall
In or out of love again I doubt I'm gonna win you back
When you've got eyes like that
that won't let me in

Always looking out

Lot of people spend their time just floating
We were victims together but lonely
You've got hungry eyes that just can't look forward
Can't give them enough but we just can't start over
Building with bent nails we're
Falling but holding, I don't wanna take up anymore of your time
Time time time

Sometimes time doesn't heal
No not all
Just stand still
While we fall
In or out of love again I doubt I'm gonna win you back
When you've got eyes like that
that won't let me in
Always looking out
Always lookin

Review about If I Had Eyes

if i had eyes | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/24/2008

I think the song is about a relationship he's had with a girl who never really let him in or trusted him completely and they ended up breaking up because of it.
when he talks about her eyes not letting him in its like she would never allow them to connect on a really deep level and she never let him in 100%
at the start when he says "if i had eyes at the back of my head, i would have told you that you looked good as i walked away" i think he means that he's always let her in, even after they had broken up and he goes onto say that she never did the same back.

Beautiful song but it's all wrong. That is I think I disagree | Reviewer: JMB | 7/11/2008

Great tune and I feel J.J. is currently one of the greatest lyricists out there. Though everyone will have their own perspective, in reflecting on "If I Had Eyes", I tend to feel perhaps the enriching environment in which J.J. grew up so far removed from the sufferings experienced in basic survival has left him a bit naiive in some matters. Women are not destined to be pets who should need to trust another person for their survival. They need to fall and get back up until they can stand on their own. So while I feel J.J.'s lyrics are typically insightful, I must argue that time is healing. Further, I believe less judging and blaming and more compassion, respect, acceptance and forgiveness would make a difference. Holding on can make us feel strong but often the true strength is in letting go.
