lyrics

I was led to believe that I possessed a specialness
a special this, a special that
But instead I was made to live without togetherness
that special bliss was never mine to feel

I was told that in time I’d see the fruits of patience
see the fruits of patience
behold the fruits of patience

You told me my eyes shine bright
You told me my eyes shine bright

I think it’s about time this jilted heart were spared
The inscrutability of your eyes made me hypothesize that you cared

You’re warm like summer sun on Mars
Cold like a pain, sweet, so bizarre
You told me my eyes shine bright,
told me my eyes shine bright
Bright, bright

Invisible like the atmosphere
Spatial, maple, so unclear
told me my eyes shine bright,
now I can’t sleep

Without your love (love love love, love, love love love)
Without your love (love love love, love, love love love)
Without your love (love love love, love, love love love)
Without your love (love love love, love, love)

Love, love, love

Enter you, with your gaze so warm and so inviting
Delighting in hiding
Behind those eyes, poison and sweetness coincide
Unreadable then, unreadable now
Then there’s me, eyes wide
with a mind preoccupied, a mind you got inside
a mind you got inside

when you told me my eyes shine bright
I thought that you meant it that night

I think it’s about time this jilted heart were spared
The inscrutability of your eyes made me hypothesize that you cared

You’re warm like summer sun on Mars
Cold like a pain, sweet, so bizarre
You told me my eyes shine bright,
told me my eyes shine bright
Bright, bright

Invisible like the atmosphere
Spatial, maple, so unclear
told me my eyes shine bright,
now I can’t sleep

Without your love (love love love, love, love love love)
Without your love (love love love, love, love love love)
Without your love (love love love, love, love love love)
Without your love (love love love, love, love)

Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love

You’re warm like summer sun on Mars
Cold like a pain, sweet, so bizarre
You told me my eyes shine bright,
told me my eyes shine bright
Bright, bright

Invisible like the atmosphere
Spatial, maple, so unclear
told me my eyes shine bright,
now I can’t sleep at night

Without your love (love love love, love, love love love)
Without your love (love love love, love, love love love)
Without your love (love love love, love, love love love, love love)
Without your love (love love love)
love, love

Unreadable then, unreadable now
I don’t know when you set it all down
Unreadable then, unreadable now
I don’t know when you set my heart down

about

Michael Mayo New York, New York

Michael Mayo approaches his voice as a musical instrument, but in often unexpected ways — with Brian Wilson-style pop harmonies, Stevie Wonder R&B, drum and bass, inspired by a line from poets, and even hip-hop. Even with his classical training, Mayo’s music is a seamless blend of alternative and neo-soul elements, a unique combination that defies genre. ... more
