about

If you look at me and my siblings and cousins, you can see we all share our grandfather Poppy's almond-shaped eyes. At the end of his life, Poppy had dementia. He would see one of his grandkids and say, "You look familiar." He couldn't remember who we were, but he knew we were family. -- Jesse James DeConto

lyrics

I spy you in my eyes
Your face, my face, they never lie
Mirror, mirror, I can't hide
Your unmistakeable almond eyes

You look familiar

I spy me in your eyes
In snapshots of love and flashes of light
Your face chiseled in marble white
My old age in your almond eyes

I spy you in their eyes
We dance together in jagged lines
It's rough and tumble, big hearts collide
Misaligned minds behind their eyes

In your eyes, the world was beautiful
When you'd dance, your feet were beautiful
When you'd paint, the world was beautiful
In your mind, the world was beautiful
