"If only I could have eyes for you, but then I'd have eyes for two."

Angela Healy's lyrics resonate inside me as I listen to her song, Soleil Lady Lay, a song featured in my film, Crosstown. As I lay in my bed (which is also featured in my film) I remember being on tour with Angela last year. We spent much of our time on the road discussing love. We were both on our way to see lovers. Lovers in a dangerous time. Past, present, future time.

Falling for two people at once was one theme I explored in my film. A theme I've probably explored in my life as well. Sometimes the possibilities and choices in love and life can be bewildering. I think that by following our truest instincts, rather than measuring the "what if"s, we get closer to love. The love that drives us, the love that holds us in that peaceful place.

Hello Michael and friends,
I am thrilled to contribute to this film and the insight that it might provide us as we learn more about love and the way we relate. What a great idea of a comment page. I thought the lyrics to the song might be a good way to share my understanding of love and my search to understand the people I love and have loved. Please give feedback and ideas about love songs and my girl Soleil.
Soleil Lady Lay By: Angela Healy
Chorus
Soleil lady lay. So lay lady lay. So lady lay Soleil, so lay lady lay.
Verse I
I love to watch you sway and watch your lips as they say, " You cast a spell on me, with your eyes and I caused you sorrow. But I feel your eyes, your eyes on me. Oh if only I could have eyes for you but then I'd have eyes for two.
Verse II
And each day has a sun, each day has a moon. This love came too late Soleil. This love came too soon. But I feel your eyes, your eyes on me. Oh if only I could have eyes for you but then I'd have eyes for two.
Chorus
Soleil lady lay. So lay lady lay. So lady lay, Soleil. So lay lady lay
Bridge
And you've carried this load for too long. Soleil lady lay, lady lay him down. Yes he's been sewing his victory flag since he was a young lad. Soleil lady lay, lady lay him down. Yes lay him down. Lady lay him down. Yes lay him down, lady lay him down.
-The End-
