lyrics

OCEANS IN YOUR EYES
If this all comes down the way it should,
then you could be my baby, and I would
sing about the river, no, the oceans, in
your eyes. And, sometimes what seems
bad at first, is good. But, if you’ve got
it always figured out, well, then you’ll
never be surprised. And, there’s a river
in your eyes. No, there are oceans in
your eyes, where swirling currents wash
around me and keep me spinnin’ ‘round
in circles. I’m not just swimmin’ in the
water. Yeah, I’m swimmin’ for my life. And,
every now and then, I stop, and wonder
if, maybe, I’m half crazy. But I can’t seem
to hold that thought for too long. Yeah,
it’s good work, if you can get it. But, if
it’s not gonna save me, then the work
that seemed at first alright, just instead,
might be all wrong. But, there’s a river
in your eyes. No, there are oceans in
your eyes, where swirling currents wash
around me and keep me spinnin’ ‘round
in circles. I’m not just swimmin’ in the
water. Yeah, I’m swimmin’ for my life.
And, I don’t want to stay here anymore. I’d
rather we just make our way out through
the door and see what it opens up
inside. And, I’ve set my sails against the
wind, and if the wind shifts, I’ll just set my
sails against the wind again and head in a
new direction, with the tide, on the river
in your eyes. No, on the oceans in your
eyes, where swirling currents wash around
me and keep me spinnin’ ‘round in circles.
I’m not just swimmin’ in the water. Yeah,
I’m swimmin’ for my life, on the river in
your eyes. No, on the oceans in your eyes,
where swirling currents wash around me
and keep me spinnin’ ‘round in circles. I’m
not just swimmin’ in the water. Yeah, I’m
swimmin’ for my life.

Bill Scorzari Huntington, New York

“…singer-songwriter Bill Scorzari transcends titles like songwriter or poet. He catapults past categories into a dark ruminative and ultimately life-affirming realm where folklore, memories, pain, prayer, and incantation meet.” - March/April 2020 issue, Acoustic Guitar Magazine

Look for his 4th album, “The Crosswinds of Kansas,” in the spring/summer of 2022.
