about

Watercolor Eyes is another song written in my van at a succession of rest areas while driving west to east on I-40 through Iowa

lyrics

Watercolor Eyes

What I've always found in you
Is how you help me see
A pallet of the earth and sky
Through your watercolor eyes

What I've always loved in you
Are the subtle shades
Between the gold, tan and brown
The silver and the grey

What you've often shown to me
Is how the light will fall
To illuminate a certain place
Make a shadow on the wall

Way out there where you choose to live
Salmon clouds are swimming around
Bring me down to my knees
Make me kiss the ground

Passing roads of furrowed fields
Of alternating greens
A big old hawk flies overhead
Who can know what he sees

It's like I'm looking through your eyes
At pods of dried milkweed
Pitch them up into the wind
Scatter all the seeds

A whitewashed fence, a turning leaf
A curve upon the road
The sky's reflection on the pond
I wonder what's beneath

I look for you in Iowa
Kansas and Nebraska too
Anyplace you follow me
Every place you change the view
