[Intro — sample chop, filtered, vinyl crackle] (Your eyes so blue...) (I keep telling myself...) [Verse 1, dry, conversational, behind the beat] Three pictures on the desk, I ain't moved em in a week Still smell the cabin on the first one, cedar and the creek Braid slipping off your shoulder like it's tired of the day Confetti dress, you laughing at a joke I didn't say Bare arms in the firelight, quiet mouth, far-off stare I keep telling myself I'm just looking — why'd I leave em there? Could blame the wine, blame the drive, blame the way the night went But I'm the one who printed em, and I'm the one who ain't sent [Hook, sampled and looped, soft falsetto double] I keep telling myself I'm just looking But looking turned into something else Your eyes so blue Your eyes so blue Your skin so smooth Your skin so smooth [Verse 2, same pocket, a little more swagger] Tent poles, sky gone peach, black strapless, napkin creased Red lipstick doing all the talking, you ain't had to speak Pearl on the lobe, gold chair, bracelet catching dusk You stared into the lens like you already knew too much I wasn't in the frame, or I was — I'm the one who shot it Funny how you hold a moment and you never really got it Same look in all three, like a secret you was keeping And I'm the one still up at 2am not sleeping [Hook] I keep telling myself I'm just looking But looking turned into something else Your eyes so blue Your eyes so blue Your skin so smooth Your skin so smooth (so smooth) [Bridge, half-sung, Rhodes under] Radiohead night, curls lit up like something holy Freckles on your shoulder, I'd kiss em off slowly Smiling to the side like you already know the ending That night we all was wilding, no pretending I don't want the picture, I want you across the table I don't want the memory, I want you when I'm able [Hook, full, ad-libs low in the mix] I keep telling myself I'm just looking But looking turned into something else Your eyes so blue Your eyes so blue Your skin so smooth Your skin so smooth (every version of you) [Outro, sample decaying, filtered] Three pictures, one look Same eyes, same blue Don't change (Your eyes so blue)
