Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming

Sara Lov Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming Lyrics
1.Just Beneath The Chords

notice
how the hand that touches
is full of needles
but you don't feel it

notice
how you never feel it
how you never see it
until you're passing

you don't need a key
to know me and my thoughts
you will find me
just beneath the chords

it was given to me
and i couldn't love anything more
it was given to me

notice
how the star that shines us
it burns and blinds us
wherever we move

notice
how you love the blindness
the burn reminds you
that you can feel too

you just need to sleep
to know me, to know more
you will find me
just beneath the chords

it was given to me
and i couldn't love anything more
it was given to me
and i couldn't love anything more
it was given to me

3.A Thousand Bees

How sweet is the revenge
When you don't want it anymore?
How meaningless the defense
When you're not fighting anymore?

I've given up the wanting,
How it seems to want me still.
Like lovers wanting others,
Dancing on the lovers' hill.

Photographs, beautiful photographs.
Can't go back, can't take it back.
Photographs, beautiful photographs.
Can't go back, can't take it back.

To see a younger girl like me
With eyes all wide and wandering,
Will she awaken just like me?
A thousand bee stings covering
A heart that doesn't need their wings.

You stung me, you stung me.
You stung me, you stung me.
You stung me, you stung me.
You stung me, you stung me.

Photographs, beautiful photographs.
Can't go back, can't take it back.
Everything, I've told you everything.
Can't go back, can't take it back.

Photographs, beautiful photographs.
Can't go back, can't take it back.

How sweet is the revenge
When you don't want it anymore?


4.New York

I came here, I waited
To see it, to say this
What started on Fourth Street is finished.

I came back to see it
Through new eyes and feel it
I waited all night
On boards by the waterside.

I had a dream you went to New York
You found new friends
You had new work
I wasn't there, but I came to visit
We sat on the bridge and talked of the difference.

We spoke of the long ago
Promised each other we'd never get old
But that was a whole life ago
And now I'm on my own.

I came here to see it
Through new eyes and feel it
I waited all night on boards by the waterside.

I had a dream you went to New York
You found new friends
You had new work
I wasn't there, but I came to visit
I slept on your floor, watched the wind in the curtains.

Maybe it's enough to know
I never walk alone
I get by on my own
I'll always be my only home.

I came here, I waited
To see you, to say this
What started on Fourth Street is finished.


5.Old Friends


6.Seasoned Eyes Were Beaming

i was born a warrior
i came out in shining armor
i fought the great war
won the medal

and i even had the biggest dream
and i even got it half achieved
i almost hurt them
the ones who toreme

forget the dream let it go
let it go
let it go
let it go
i almost did
i almost did

but something carried me that night
i know that it was you
tried to dry to see the lines
but nothing would come through

all you ever needed was you
the only one that let you down ooh

now you've grown and you're more logical
you forget that anything is possible
dismissing all who remind you you're not true

so you cling to anything you can
it is all according to the new plan
i hope you're lucky and something takes you back again

but something carried me that night
i know that it was you
tried to dry to see the lines
but nothing would come through

i remember needing life
i thought it needed me
something only in young eyes
a seasoned eye won't see


7.Touched

What do you see in her
In her, in her
What do you mean I'm touched
It's worse, it's a curse
What do you need out there
Get back in there
What about the little chair
We play piano on
Piano on
Piano on

Paranoid secrets
Little dark secrets
Reasons, no reasons
Some will see, some will run
Do you love me, love me,
Do you really love me
Mean to you
Sorry too
Why did I, why did you
Why did you
Why did you


8.Animals

I want to know,
I got to know
What are you made of?
What are you made of?

You never look me in the eye;
I never see the inside of your eye.
Do, do you look at anyone, at anyone?
What are you made of?
What are you made of?

What kind of animal are we?
I always knew you'd make a fool of me,
And I could never look you in the eye -
You prove me right, so do not ask me why.

What kind of animal are we?
I should have never let you into me.
But I never, never learned to swim
Until you came around and pushed me in.

Either in love or never in love,
Always run away, always run away.

You and I, we'll never realize
Fleeting moments that pass by
Are all we ever have.

Either in doubt or never in doubt,
Always run away, always run away.

What kind of animal are we?
I always knew you'd make a fool of me.
And I could never look you in the eye,
You prove me right so do not ask me why.

What kind of animal are we?
I should have never let you into me.
But I never, never learned to swim
Until you came around and pushed me in.

Either in love, or never in love
Always run away, always run away.

I want to know,
I gotta know
What are you made of?
What are you made of.


9.Tell Me How

I know we can talk about it later
And I know; nothing really to discuss
I know that I've got my little way of
Complicating us

And that is all I ever feel
Like nothing good is ever real
Do you pretend the bad is good?
I know you do; I do it, too

I know that you'd never do me wrong, babe
Even though sometimes, I wish you would
'cause I'm really good at getting hurt, babe
Not so great at feeling good

And that is not for me to have
Maybe not always, but for now
My hand is always on my mouth
Telling me how

And that is all I ever feel
Like nothing good is ever real
Maybe just scream my name out loud
Drive it all out
Tell me how
Tell me how
Tell me how
Tell me how


10.Fountain

Fountain, fountain
We are the same
Fountain, fountain
We are the same

You with the water,
and me with the pain
Turning it over
again and again

Don't you wish you
could throw your pennies back at them?
Don't you wish you
could throw your pennies back at them?
Back at them, at them

Fountain, Fountain
We are the same
Fountain, Fountain
We are the same

All that anyone
ever has for you
Are the things
you reflect back to them

Don't you wish you
could throw your pennies back at them?
Don't you wish you
could throw your pennies back at them?
Back at them, at them

Fountain, fountain
We are the same
Fountain, fountain
We are the same

It is so beautiful how you remain
