Lookin by The Dismemberment Plan Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes you give me the very same look
You gave me when we first met
The very same eyes and very same smile
How can I forget?
The background is always different
Your hairdo is of its day
But the look is eternal and it's everlasting
And it always blows me away, blows me away
[Chorus]
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
Oh I'm sorry
Oh I'm sorry
I was just lookin'
[Verse 2]
Just like a painter returns to his muse
With his hands more slow and sure
Once he wanted to paint her naked
Now he only wants to paint her
Gone is the Mona Lisa
Mystery and in its place
Is a love they know they can't deny
Written all over her face
All over her face
[Chorus](x2)
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
Oh I'm sorry
Oh I'm sorry
I was just lookin'
[Verse 3]
Sometimes you give me the very same look
You've been giving me all these years
And every time I do it I think to myself
What a good thing we have here
Oh I'm lucky that you love me
Cause my luck is not that great
And you seem to be made of horseshoes
It's like you're blessed by fate
Blessed by fate
[Chorus]
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
Oh I'm sorry
Oh I'm sorry
I was just lookin'
Sometimes you give me the very same look
You gave me when we first met
The very same eyes and very same smile
How can I forget?
The background is always different
Your hairdo is of its day
But the look is eternal and it's everlasting
And it always blows me away, blows me away
[Chorus]
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
Oh I'm sorry
Oh I'm sorry
I was just lookin'
[Verse 2]
Just like a painter returns to his muse
With his hands more slow and sure
Once he wanted to paint her naked
Now he only wants to paint her
Gone is the Mona Lisa
Mystery and in its place
Is a love they know they can't deny
Written all over her face
All over her face
[Chorus](x2)
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
Oh I'm sorry
Oh I'm sorry
I was just lookin'
[Verse 3]
Sometimes you give me the very same look
You've been giving me all these years
And every time I do it I think to myself
What a good thing we have here
Oh I'm lucky that you love me
Cause my luck is not that great
And you seem to be made of horseshoes
It's like you're blessed by fate
Blessed by fate
[Chorus]
What did you say?
What did you say?
What did you say?
Oh I'm sorry
Oh I'm sorry
I was just lookin'
