The Wonder Years – Coffee Eyes Lyrics 11 years ago
almost certain the title/lyric of "coffee eyes" is a reference to the opening lines of "Little League" by Cap'n Jazz

There Will Be Fireworks – Guising Lyrics 12 years ago
One of the most beautifully simple songs I've ever heard.

"The words spilled out my cloudy head
You were eloquent and elegant instead"

- He is confused and nervous, she is obviously poised and prepared and "elegant"/beautiful.

"When I took you into the game
You hadn't been before so I had to explain"

- despite all that, she's "new to the game" - possibly a brand new relationship.

I feel like the next lines are rather unrelated but still about this relationship. the couple are watching all the goings on in the Halloween night but making love ("the leaves had left a floor for us").

There Will Be Fireworks – Columbian Fireworks Lyrics 12 years ago
I believe it's "the merry June night will be a huge canvas".

Anyways, breathtaking song. The explosion of noisy guitars after the tense spoken word is amazing. I have no clue what the last stanza of "A clock..." is supposed to tie into it. I feel like it's separate from the rest of the story, and is just kind of to kick in the album proper.

The second stanza is absolutely beautiful, god. It just brings to mind driving late at night with the girl I love, staring into the darkness and listening to hauntingly beautiful music (like this song!)

There Will Be Fireworks – Foreign Thoughts Lyrics 12 years ago
Definitely think this is about a relationship that has ended the girl is not giving it up. She "sleeps fitfully", thinking of her lover and just wants to make him proud and try to give up the relationship. She finds a stranger to become intimate with but, in the end, the original guy is all that she wants.

"And if she dreams she dreams of / the sounds you'll never speak" is one of my favorite lyrics. Still keeping in line with the fact that she sleeps fitfully, her head filled with thoughts of her lost lover and only desiring to hear their voice again, but knowing that she lost him.
