    CD: Corner of July

    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this song on the Golden Gate Bridge after receiving a pretty powerful letter from my friend, Nathan. And, although I didn't realize what it was about until months later, the upshot is this: out of all the ways I see him, I can choose to see him through my "favorite eye," essentially my favorite way to see them, removed from all the ugly eyes that rear their noisy heads. The power of this view, this gaze into someone else, is beautiful and haunting.

    Lyrics
    so beautiful in my favorite eye
    i was watching you from the corner of july
    my friends all told me to let this one go by
    go by

    and now you're speaking in tongues
    and i am feeding you lines
    it doesn't make it any easier
    yeah we're such two different people
    yeah you don't see what i see
    but i can't dismiss you that easily
    when you told me, you told me...

    i miss the moon in grim lagoon
    the dark old man and the ancient child
    i miss the wild bees of myrrh
    and your bathroom cooly tiled
    i miss so much from out my sides, from out my sides

    so beautiful in my favorite eye
    so lovely in my favorite eye
    you're so beautiful in my precious eye
    my favorite eye
    so beautiful, so nice when you told me...

    i miss the moon in grim lagoon
    the dark old man and the ancient child
    i miss the wild bees of myrrh
    and your bathroom cooly tiled
    i miss so much from out my sides, from out of my sides...

    there slips a rope and there's the tower stacked out of your head
    i miss the dead that never lived
    and the lived, the lived, that ever died
    i miss so much from out my out my sides

    all the things i never said
    and all the times i wished i did
    and the look you looked at me
    and all the things you'd never be
    the way you haunt me in my sleep
    it's like the company you keep
    the way you haunt me...

    so beautiful in my favorite eye
    so lovely in my favorite eye
    you're so beautiful in my precious eye
    my favorite eye
    so lovely, so nice when you said to me...

    i miss the moon in grim lagoon
    the dark old man and the ancient child
    i miss the wild bees of myhrr
    and your bathroom cooly tile
    i miss so much from out my sides
    i miss so much in my favorite eye
    from out my sides, in my favorite eye
    my favorite eye
