Eyes Like Yesterday by Jace_In - Zona

Eyes Like Yesterday

Eyes Like Yesterday

Jace_In

Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sunday coffee at their table

Hands that once could lift the world

Now they shake around the sugar

Still he winks at her like girl

Photo frames along the hallway

Frozen summers

Missing teeth

I grew taller

They grew smaller

How’d the years run out on me

[Chorus]

I see my future in their faces

Every wrinkle

Every grace is

Every road I’m scared to take and

Every night I’ve thrown away

I’m growing up as they grow older

Heart gets heavy

World feels colder

Still I’m reaching for a shoulder

Eyes like yesterday

[Verse 2]

Dad says

“Son

I had my chances

Stayed too quiet

Stayed too safe”

Mom just laughs and holds his finger

Says

“We still made something great” (mm-hmm)

I’ve been chasing crowded cities

Empty glasses

Bright hotel

Kissing strangers

Leaving early

Trying to outrun myself

[Chorus]

I see my future in their faces

Every wrinkle

Every grace is

Every road I’m scared to take and

Every night I’ve thrown away

If I keep hiding from the daylight

Will I die inside the same fight

Or find a hand to hold at midnight

Eyes like yesterday

[Bridge]

Will I learn to stay

When I’m afraid

Can I lay my armor down someday

If love is just

A hundred little choices

I pray I hear it in their voices

[Chorus]

I see my future in their faces

All the could-have-beens and maybes

All the ways that love can save me

When I finally choose to stay

If I grow kinder when I’m older

Let my arms be someone’s shelter

I’ll be looking for that shoulder

Eyes like yesterday

Yeah

I’m hoping for that shoulder

Eyes like yesterday

Style

folk, Intimate acoustic piano power ballad, male raspy vocals. Start bare with soft, close-miked piano and low vocal; verses stay sparse and conversational. Chorus swells with rich chords, subtle string pad, and stacked harmonies on the hook. Second chorus adds more dynamic left-hand piano and distant toms. Final refrain drops to near-whisper then blooms on the last line for a cathartic, hopeful lift., acoustic, ballad
