Still Eyes Letra

I reach for the ashtray, to find a half a smoke,

All the bottles are empty, where has everybody gone?



We're full of questions, on a warm summer night in june,

I'm here traveling alone, to your cousins house feeling so consumed,

with the lost feeling, grieving for myself, I'm ready to stop,

completing the cycle of rotting away, i'd play forever, if you'd just drop,

everything and come lay on the grass with me,

talk about your travels and let me soak in your good company,

we've only met twice, and my life is a closed book,

but I'm willing to open up just tonight to let your wandering eyes take a look,



I traded fantasy for fact the moment we got it back...

and still i, still i, still i...

Still i've got so much to give and we've got no time to live,

but still i, still i, still i, and still i

Still i keep on moving on making right from all my wrongs,

but still i still i still i

Still I've got no faith in clocks, all they ever do is watch,

Still eyes still eyes, still eyes,

still eyes



Take a step back, try to recreate,

Walking backwards through the haze of yesterday,

Take another hit, another hit and I might be fine,

At least I could release my mind....



Counting constellations, the conversation heavy but invited,

you told me you've never loved but one day decided,

to find, what you weren't expecting, to feel god in someone's touch,

to walk together without using your genius as a crutch,

the grass wrapped us up and dropped us down with the degrees,

i gave you my jacket and while we both paused and had to breath,

i wasn't looking for salvation, and I'm sure you were surprised,

how we fit together hand and hand above the swaying night time skies,



I traded fantasy for fact the moment we got it back...

and still i, still i...

Still i've got so much to give and we've got no time to live,

but still i and still

Still i keep on moving on making right from all my wrongs,

but still i still i still i

Still I've got no faith in clocks, all they ever do is watch,

Still eyes still eyes.



The light it brings in clarity,

The thoughts have run away from me,

a rushing back to memory,

awarding new reality



the way you talk, the open heart,

small town writer with a broken lock,

quite presence, perfect name,

how did I find you so far away?



So I'll take this gift,

I'll promise that I'll learn from this,

And if it's what I think it is,

Then you get all I have to give `



The car is running, music's playing,

laying in the backseat waiting,

for a touch so pure it keeps us warm,

and lets old souls be reborn



peaceful collected and at my own pace,

allowing the sunshine to spread it's warmth across my face



it's 1:30am, eyelids get heavy and fall to rest,

place my heavy head on the right side of your chest, to say goodbye,

we die and kiss under shattered light-bulbs and let it be

tonight's not an end it's a future brilliant history.



I traded fantasy for fact the moment we got it back...

and still i, still i...

Still i've got so much to give and we've got no time to live,

but still i and still

Still i keep on moving on making right from all my wrongs,

but still i still i still i

I'm still convinced New Hampshire nights are where we both belong,
