Behind The Eyes

Letter Seventeen

A tribute to David Bowie. Sometimes it’s okay to be a little too on the nose.

Tim - vocals, keys, drum programming.

You stood there center stage
The spotlight full on you
You’d get just what you want
Your dreams would all come true

CHORUS
But I knew where to look
To see through the disguise
I could see the truth
Behind the eyes

You changed from day to day
Kept the people on their heels
Showed them what to see
Told them what to feel

CHORUS
But I knew where to look
To see through the disguise
I could see the truth
Behind the eyes

BRIDGE
You’re a scared and wounded little boy
Made up of greasepaint and light
Hoping no one notices
The cracks in your disguise

Through all your many changes
We came along with you
We followed you to the end
It’s what we had to do

CHORUS (different)
You brought us so much joy
While wearing your disguise
Never showing
The truth behind the eyes
