Story behind the song
The tape this song was on was inspired by a toy. A friend had loaned me his keyboard, and I’d written all the songs on top of its goofy beats and presets. With the exception of an unusual song about a psychiatric patient called Free, it was pretty awful. Mara was the last song on the tape and the only one not to feature the dreadful keyboard. I’ve always had a soft spot for her. Mara, incidentally, was a real person, but the song isn’t about her.
Lyrics
mara, you know things weren't always this way at all sunshine or snow, we used to believe we'd have it all sometimes the light i see in your eyes fades away sometimes the light i see in your eyes fades away if only the lie hadn't been everything we were remember the sky on the night i ran to her? sometimes the words people say tear you up sometimes the words people say tear you up sometimes the light i see in your eyes fades away sometimes the light i see in your eyes fades away
