It's you , Tamara, who's got the kindest of eyes. In your lyrics I read that you feel there's a lot of sadness and darkness inside of you, and when you see light in someone else, it touches you. And this is how YOU touch me. I've been through a dark phase, full of sorrow and disappointment, yet from this mud, a white, gentle flower sprouted, and whenever I listen to your music and I see you, I see this flower projected in you. There is no other musician for me that expresses this light, beautiful, and kind emotion.

I'm turning 30 soon and this song has been stuck in my head for a while.

I remember the first time I heard you play this song, one spring night in Seattle. This is the best song you've ever written (and you've written some spectacular songs). You should be proud.

[Verse 1] There was a time When you put your hand on the small of my back I was surprised that you touched me like that But there in your hand was a current of life I could hardly stand I stayed still And I didn't mention it Or if I did, I made some joke of it It was strange how I could feel so sane So plain when you're around [Verse 2] And unbidden to me There it rose, the fantasy Colored rose and easy Yeah, I could see it so simple, unsubtle Impossible, clearly And strange Far and as close as a mountain range On the horizon driving all day There I was, so sane So plain after everything [Verse 3] Gas came down From a buck-twenty The joke was how It broke the economy anyhow The dollar was down But my friends opened businesses There were new children And again, I didn't get married I wasn't close to my family And my dad was raising a child in Nairobi She was three now, he told me [Verse 4] Gas stations I laughed in I noticed fucking everything The light, the reflections Different languages, your expressions We would fall down laughing Effervescent And all over nothing, all over nothing Just as though It was a joke my whole life through All of the pain and sorrow I knew All of the tears that had fallen from my eyes I can't say why We walked in the park Under the shade I avoided your eyes I was ashamed of my own mind No SSRIs My day is dark as your night [Verse 5] Oh, you got The kindest of eyes I cannot help but notice sometimes But you know, as do I I cannot look twice without falling right Into the sweet and the tender line between Something I can and can never be And just then an ambulance Passed on the street And you took my arm reflexively [Refrain] That was the year I was thirty That was the year you were thirty-one That was the year that we lost, or we won That was the year I was thirty That was the year you were thirty-one That was that year, now here Now here is another one

There's some Joni in the vocal style, but that's pretty much where it ends. She has her own voice as a lyricist.
