Lyrics

I'm looking for the tower of learning

I'm looking for the copious prize

I saw it in your eyes what I'm looking for

I saw it in your eyes what I'm looking for

I really do fear that I'm dying

I really do fear that I'm dead

I saw it in your eyes what I'm looking for

I saw it in your eyes what will make me live

All the sights of Paris

Pale inside your Iris

Tip the Eiffel Tower with one glance

Stained glass cathedrals with one glint

You smashed it with your eyes

What I'm looking for

One blink and then my heart wasn't there no more

I'm looking for the tower of learning

I'm looking for the copious prize.
