Lookin' In Your Eyes

"You'd think that people would've had enough of silly love songs. But I look around me and I see it isn't so. Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs. And what's wrong with that? I'd like to know. 'Cause here I go AGAIN..."

Thanks, Sir Paul.

The lyrics, music and performances here precede what we now know as AI. So if there's any intelligence here at all, it was human. The jury is out.

Funny story (to me)...The first time I listened to my scratch vocals on this version I didn't like the music I had written at all. Got up the next morning to rewrite the song but listened to the previous day's version again. Huh. Somehow, it sounded exactly right. Sent it to Dusty for finished vocals straight away. Anyway...Interesting how a few hours of separation can refresh one's perspective.

This "may" be my lyricist's favorite song of ours. FWIW, Mrs Lyricist has blue eyes. She's listed on SoundCloud as DC Ron Fan Club President. Yeah, she's pretty cool, even if she has questionable taste. Ha!

And THANK YOU in advance for any listens and/or input.

I’ll never get you, no
I’ll never let you go
I’ve said both of those so much
I don’t know which to believe
You begged me often to stay
And then you’d ask me to leave

Lookin’ in your eyes
All I see is blue
I can’t tell where the ocean ends
Or where the sky begins
It’s all sapphire and denim blue jeans
A cyan crayon and aquamarine
Lookin’ in your eyes
All I see is blue
All I see is you

I’ve been chasing this dream
For longer than it seems
I wake up shaking and cold
And I wonder what is real
If I had you here to hold
Then I’d know how I would feel

Lookin’ in your eyes
All I see is blue
I can’t tell where the ocean ends
Or where the sky begins
It’s all sapphire and denim blue jeans
A cyan crayon and aquamarine
Lookin’ in your eyes
All I see is blue
All I see is you

We were so in love, it seemed
Every time you laughed and screamed
Every time you fought and swore
The little things that came before .. Always wanting so much more

We were so in love, I know
Every time I had to go
Every time we hugged and kissed
The little things we reminisced .. Always wanting what we’ve missed

Lookin’ in your eyes
All I see is blue
I can’t tell where the ocean ends
Or where the sky begins
It’s all sapphire and denim blue jeans
A cyan crayon and aquamarine
Lookin’ in your eyes
All I see is blue
All I see is you
All I see...
Is you
