about

Holy wow, there were some loud birds outside when I recorded this...Think they may have been trying to tell me something. I've fallen in love, out of love, and given up on love. But then you meet someone new and find that despite yourself you love again. New eyes, but the same love...Lives lived again and again in and out of love… All the universe is making loving to itself as itself as me and as you….

lyrics

Your face it keeps on changing for me
Though I know those eyes are still the same one
I've seen them far too many times
The ocean shines behind them like before
The stars have all conspired to enact this dance where you and I will lose
And find each other, were the ones that play the game, and make the rules

I know them, I know them far too well
I know them, I know them far too well

A smile comes upon me when despite it all
You've slipped away
Hidden from sight I seek you
In darkest night in brightest day
Losing hope I rest my weary body
At the water's edge
Open my eyes and see you there beside me
Once again

I know them, I know them far too well
I know them, I know them far too well

Love letter to you and to me. All of us living and exploring and playing together in sadness, loss and great joy never ending...If it was too easy it wouldn't be fun...Te adoro
