about

SONG DESCRIPTION:

This song is about the identity transformation a newborn takes you through, instantly and forever. It's a mystical experience. This new little person you've been so excited to meet for so long finally introduces herself to you, and as soon as she locks eyes with you, it's impossible to quite remember her not existing. And you can't even conceive of yourself as anything but Papa anymore. It's profound and magical.

lyrics

LYRICS TO "BLUE-EYED HOLE IN TIME"

You were a flower in the weeds
When your blue eyes opened up to me
You wouldn’t turn away
Until my courage rose to meet your gaze
Then I fell right in

There’s a hole in time
There’s a hole in time
There’s a hole in time
And we’ve fallen through
We’ve fallen through
We’ve fallen

That’s when I fell in love with you
It was all my stolen heart could do
But I didn’t stand a chance
When you asked my swollen heart to dance
I fell right in

There’s a hole in time
There’s a hole in time
There’s a hole in time
And we’ve fallen through
We’ve fallen through
We’ve fallen

There’s just no way I could explain
How it is that stardust breathes again
But you answered without words
That you’ve always been and always were
I fell right in

There’s a hole in time
There’s a hole in time
There’s a hole in time
And we’ve fallen through
We’ve fallen through
We’ve fallen
