Hungry Eyes

[Verse 1]

You don’t touch me
But I feel it
Every time you look my way

Room goes quiet
When you’re watching
Like you know what I won’t say

You don’t rush it
You don’t reach me
You just stay right where you are

And I swear
That silence
Hits me harder than your arms

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]

I’ve learned the language of restraint
I know how to behave
But the way you hold your focus
Makes it harder every day

⸻

[Chorus]

It’s those hungry eyes
Cutting slow
Like you already know

It’s those hungry eyes
Pulling me close
Without touching my bones

I don’t need your hands
Tracing every inch of my skin 
You’re already touching me
Without a hint of any sin

⸻

[Verse 2]

You step closer
Than you need to
To feel the heat between

Every second
Stretches thinner
Every look gets mean

You don’t say it
You don’t ask
You let the tension grow

Like you know I’ll give it up
If you don’t let me go

⸻

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I pretend that I don’t notice
Even when my pulse betrays
But the room feels even smaller
Every time you say my name

⸻

[Chorus]

It’s those hungry eyes
Watching me
Like you’re tasting every thought

It’s those hungry eyes
Patient, deep
Taking more than what you’ve got

I don’t need a sound
I don’t need a sign
The way you look at me
Is crossing every line

⸻

[Bridge]

If this is how you take control
By doing nothing at all
Then I don’t stand a chance
Standing this close to the fall

You don’t chase
You don’t claim
You just let me lean in

And I hate how bad I want
To let you win

⸻

[Final Chorus]

It’s those hungry eyes
Dark and slow
Pulling secrets off my skin

It’s those hungry eyes
Letting go
Just to pull me in again

I don’t need your touch
To come undone
The way you look at me
Already feels like one

⸻

[Outro - half-spoken / breathy]

Don’t look away
You already know
Those hungry eyes
And nowhere left to go
