This is from my online album 'New Crescent Yard' which you can download (there are free downloads too) at http://steveswindells.bandcamp.com In Your Eyes It started with a photograph, that caught me by surprise. It seemed as if you spoke to me directly with your eyes. Your lips were poised to open and touch mine very slowly, then my dream dissolved to darkness and the feeling was unholy. The years of cruel awakening, the months of shifting roles, the weeks of doing everything to find some heart and soul. I would swim in your river, I could drown in your eyes... We are taken, we are given, maybe driven to disguise. In your eyes - we'd never say goodbye, in your eyes, your eyes, we'd never say goodbye, say goodbye. To much hate in heartbreak city, it was not a pretty sight. So many broken children getting caught-up in the spotlight. Those crowds of clowns just left me cold and I longed for somewhere real - where love could conquer loneliness and all the hurt would heal. The years of cruel awakening, the months of shifting roles, the weeks of doing everything to find some heart and soul. I would swim in your river, I could drown in your eyes... We are taken, we are driven, maybe given to surprise. In your eyes - we'd never say goodbye, in your eyes, your eyes, we'd never say goodbye, we'd never say goodbye.

I would love to hear, say, Leona Lewis, Frank Ocean, Bonnie Rait, Barbra Streisand, Holly Johnson or Christina Aguilera sing this song.
