Lookin' through the eyes of danger
And I heard a guitar playin'
Somewhere far off in the night
The streetlights looked so pretty
Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
I was lookin' for another sundown
They were stayin' till the end, till the end
Lookin' at the all-night dancer
Lookin' at the all-night dancer
(I'm looking through the eyes)
Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
On the other side of midnight
Never takin' all the chances
Lookin' at the all-night dancer
And my head was spinnin' round and round
As I walked into the main street
Of a stranger, lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
They were hangin' around the corner
I ain't never goin' back again, no more
Never takin' all the chances
Saw a crowd across the square
(I'm looking through the eyes)
Lookin' through the eyes of danger
I was lookin' for a place to stay
Distant bells they started ringing
Round and round
And the place was full of loneliness
Lookin' through the eyes of danger
That disappeared from sight
Of a stranger
Of a stranger
And I saw you standing there, standing there
As they spread into a town
(I'm looking through the eyes)
Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
I am never going back
(I'm looking through the eyes)
Never takin' all the chances
(I'm looking through the eyes)
(I'm looking through the eyes)
And one thing's sure for certain
