Please, don't take answers from eyes.
You know that mine can't lie quite as well as yours.
-- okay, I finally figured out why I have been so obsessed with this song!!
It's because it sets the premise for the manga I want to write. A world where all that matters is everyone's current love lives. It takes place in a 1960's art and fashion warehouse, and you "can't believe what I just found out!!"
How could you leave me for her?? Hysterical... raccoon like eyes with long lashes
Our love was the whole world!!!!
But maybe he didn't. She's trying to read his eyes to find the truth
And the truth ends up being that SHE was the one who was lying! mwuahahahahha
I don't know. It sounds cool for a second but maybe what I like more about it is the idea of living such a carefree lifestyle that trivial things can be blown to cosmically karmic proportions!
The tale of boy and girl where their every subtle move is worth noting. She wore her hair down today.
He designed a new dress.
ANYWAY
The song goes on to say something like this and maybe I'm hearing it wrong but I've always read these next lyrics in the viewpoint of a god watching over that boy and that girl and trying to explain in cosmic terms how they are missing a beat (of perfection)
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning on and waiting at the start
They never quite get it right because they're mortals after all
But there is a "right" way and it does go above the rest
The subtle dance between a soft jab of heartbreak and a world of loving, compassionate eyes.
Some may call it manipulation
But I call it being alive
Knowing when to tug and when to turn away
"Elodie, look at me, unless you're trying to hurt me"
How the direction of someone's eyes can affect another so deeply
Ugh!
