Jewel Of Mine Eye by Temples Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Before we reason we tick back the time
A peril lost upon a broken smile
The confrontation of a point of view
The shadow becomes the shadow following you
[Verse 2]
Before we reason we say words of hurt
The pending phrases from our history books
The revelation of a point on cue
The shadow becomes the shadow harrowing you
[Pre-Chorus 1]
As the play re-enacts itself
I will never be a hologram
As you stay and I want to go
I can never make a dream of this
Never, ahhh, ever
[Chorus]
Every tick of the world
Make amends with yourself
Have the jewel of mine eye
Every tick of the Earth
Take a lesson and learn
The shadow returned
The shadow becomes the shadow following you
[Verse 4]
Before we reason we take back the shrine
A vision lost a vision left untwined
Before the season of the change may come
The shadow befriends the shadow harrowing you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
As the play re-invents itself
I can never be a hologram
As you stay and I want to go
I can never make a dream of this
Never, ahhh, ever
[Chorus] 3x
Every tick of the world
Make amends with yourself
Have the jewel of mine eye
Every tick of the Earth
Take a lesson and learn
The shadow returned
Before we reason we tick back the time
A peril lost upon a broken smile
The confrontation of a point of view
The shadow becomes the shadow following you
[Verse 2]
Before we reason we say words of hurt
The pending phrases from our history books
The revelation of a point on cue
The shadow becomes the shadow harrowing you
[Pre-Chorus 1]
As the play re-enacts itself
I will never be a hologram
As you stay and I want to go
I can never make a dream of this
Never, ahhh, ever
[Chorus]
Every tick of the world
Make amends with yourself
Have the jewel of mine eye
Every tick of the Earth
Take a lesson and learn
The shadow returned
The shadow becomes the shadow following you
[Verse 4]
Before we reason we take back the shrine
A vision lost a vision left untwined
Before the season of the change may come
The shadow befriends the shadow harrowing you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
As the play re-invents itself
I can never be a hologram
As you stay and I want to go
I can never make a dream of this
Never, ahhh, ever
[Chorus] 3x
Every tick of the world
Make amends with yourself
Have the jewel of mine eye
Every tick of the Earth
Take a lesson and learn
The shadow returned
