In Your Eyes
Axero feat. Katie McConnell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wait, there are some things I'd rather not know
It's late, thoughts in my head will not leave me alone
Maybe it'll get better, words that you said a long time ago
Light as a feather, yet so heavy pull me back down to your level
See how I rise when things go my way, I'll be careful
Watching my feet every step that I take
Light as a feather, yet so heavy push me further
Till I'm breaking, I'm weak and I'm waiting
For something good to come but it won't while I'm pacing
Round and round I go again, and this won't end if thinking's all I do
Another you will follow too, and I'll watch for that look in your eyes
•••
That look in your eyes
•••
Retreat, back to the thing familiar to you
I believe returning to that was all that you knew
I don't want to be bitter
Trying my best to leave it behind
In future I'll consider going steady push me further
Till I'm breaking, I'm weak and I'm waiting
For something good to come but it won't while I'm pacing
Round and round I go again, and this won't end if thinking's all I do
Another you will follow too, and I'll watch for that look in your eyes
•••
That look in your eyes
•••
If you keep holding on
If you keep holding on
If you keep holding on, you'll see
You will see I'm broken, I'm weak and I'm waiting
For something good to come but it won't while I'm pacing
Round and round I go again, and it won't end if thinking's all I do
Another you will follow too, and I'll watch for that look in your eyes
•••
That look in your eyes

They feel light as a feather but compelled to come back to their ex-partner's level, which they have outgrown.
The following verses further reveal how the singer still holds on to the pain of a past relationship, making it difficult for them to move on.

They keep on going around in circles, hoping for better results while still keeping an eye out for that familiar look in their ex-partner's eyes.
Overall, the lyrics of the song show how it's not easy to let go of the past and how it affects one's present and future.
