Baxter, Rayland - Yellow Eyes Lyrics

That verse melody is so catchy

That smile is so contagious. :)

Love this song.
He looks like a singing Ryan Gosling

I was at a Caamp concert and this played between sets. I was singing it and thought it was some older song that everyone knew. I was the only one singing it though. Didn't even know where I heard it. I think it plays at work. So great and glad I found Rayland in a round about way.

This song deserves all the love. Bravo, Baxter.

Kudos to the (underrated) keys player

I’m here still trying to figure out here they sampled the guitar piece from...

Was looking up Yellow Ledbetter by Pearl Jam and this was just beneath it.. had to check it out

good story telling composition

Goosebumps! :-)

Ahhhhhhh sounds so damn good

This is so well done, listening more and more every day

Big fan ! Hope to meet you some day.

There's a paperclip resting on my countertop
Sunday morning I forgot
What it's like to lose a friend
Yesterday
How it seems so far away
And I've said all I can say
Now it's time I get to goin'
Now it's time I get to find my own way
And I'll leave you lonely
I'll leave you lonely
Now I'm on the road
Knowing not which way to go
Is it yes or is it no?
I don't really care
For the golden sun
Has washed me away and I've become
Just another vagabond holding my head
Now it's time I get to goin'
Now it's time I get to find my own way
And I'll leave you lonely
I'll leave you lonely
All in all it's a beautiful day
And I wake up all alone
I cannot help but run away
Now I'm afraid
That it's all in my head
Don't you know
That it's all in your head?
So you roll the dice
Melt the fire
Burn the ice
Find the girl with yellow eyes
And go and break her heart
See that nothing changes
And I know not what I've become
A prisoner to everyone I've loved from the start
Now it's time I get to goin'
Now it's time I get to find my own way
And I'll leave you lonely
I'll leave you lonely
I'll leave you lonely
I'll leave you lonely
I'll leave you lonely
I'll leave you lonely

I am assuming 61 people accidentally dislike this song.

this is one of my favorite songs atm its so underrated

Kiley Condon saw them back in June! Never heard of him, but when the crowed went crazy suggesting him to play shiiiit

I just listened to this song on Radio 1. I needed to put a face to this group. Very nice.

new sound system new tech and nothing else new.

good groove

sencilla y emotiva canción llena de sentimiento
como a mi me gusta... genial!
mi gato debe pensar lo mismo porque no para
de subirse al teclado

thanks percy

💛💛

I did not know he played lacrosse. That makes him way better #LaxOn

Modern BeatleQueens

Rayland..This is a Masterpiece......Bravo..........And Thank you..

Heard this when riding with Daughter on Skyline Drive.. We we're there to spread her father's ashes (my ex). poignant. this song seemed fitting.

I wont find the girl with yellow eyes. I dont wanna break her heart. But she broke my heart. And I'll her lonely but its really hard. Love hurts...

I came because of Trojan Idol 2018.

Oh so nice!

Tight joint

I heard you on the radio today! LOVE!

He sorta has a Beatles vibe

Heard this in an recordshop. Asked the guy who this was, now I am here :)

J Lansdale approves

Rayland, I am of Brazil and appreciate your songs. the letters are so pretty, i enjoy the style, musical composition, even it help me to practise my english. thanks for everything

Nice melody, music and interesting voice but overall unimpressive and nothing special.

I listen to this song over and over!!!!

The guy on the keys is jammin' to another beat!

The 37 ppl who disliked this are going straight to hell 👍👌

WHO THE FUCK THUMBS DOWNED THIS???

This song very Andrew Bird.

One of my favorite songs of all time

I can't stop listening to this!

Is it just me...... or does it kinda have a John Denver flair to it?

isaac hanson brought me here... thanks isaac!

lisashmo me too! Hanson really has an ear for great music. I’ve gotten into so many different artists because of them.

🙌🏼 Special moment when you randomly come across Fansons...

The Mindy Project brought me here.

Thought this was Jimmie Dale Gilmore for the longest time.  This plays on the 'corporate' radio channel at work, and I've been looking for it for the past year!  Awesome.

Riff got me thinking of a bunch of other songs but is still so unique. Love 🙌🏾❣️

I came here because of The Mindy Project.

Alisha Pereira lol I love u😂

Alisha Pereira yaass

Alisha Pereira me too! Lol

same :( rewatched the series and heard this, makes me wish the show was still on lol

@RL M Shakey Graves 💙💙
Tomorrow goes along with this.

How have I never heard him before?! So late to the party...

Love what you have going on! Amazing talent! I picked up a copy of "Imaginary Man" at one of your shows, and it remains in my car, and is played often! Thank you, Sir!

This deserves at least 5 million views, what's wrong with people?????? Gooooo Ray!

enjoyed hearing you at the Levitt Shell - we plan to see you when you tour in nashville or Memphis again!

that riff sounds so familiar
.

wonderful.

Love u Chloë

I'll leave you lonely...

Fantastic tune !

I feel like writing a screenplay called "I leave you lonely"!

Love this <3 Ever since their performance with the Lumineers, this song stuck with me :)

Saw him perform yesterday with the Lumineers!

At the greek theater? Me too!

Awesome! It's a great shared experience. Lots of good vibes. :o)

Me too but in Austin TX earlier this year. I had to buy his vinyl after the concert. Amazing bands all around!!

Gabrielle Cabrera sounds breath taking

great song... love that guitar riff...

Just saw him at Bonnaroo this year and I am already in love!

Saw Rayland in Cleveland, in February, and he was amazing. I was a vocalist in area bands late sixties, early seventies, and I love original, thoughtful and intelligent music and I thank a coworker for turning me on to Rayland. I love to harmonize with him. That 3 part harmony is fun! Thanks Rayland. You are surprisingly psychedelic live, by the way.

If you mix Paul Simon with a dash of Bob Dylan you get Rayland Baxter.

I literally said the same thing to a friend of mine the other night. Perfect example.

potato life that's it!

You know, his father played lap steel for bob

I was thinking more Paul Simon + Jeff Tweedy

I've heard this a few times on KC 90.1 and I love it.

Good tune!

Great Song.

Heard him on a feature on NPR on a horrible boring drive home from Thanksgiving, I am thankful I did

Beautiful. And that Hammond ... magically delicious.

love love love.

Ready to go on tour

Great vocals great groove!

Great song.

The camera man can't feature the lead guitarist on his little riff? Sheesh man, what the heck?

+Josh Neilson I FUCK'N LUV THAT RIFF

+Daniel Thomas Phipps & The Kinfolk

What's so bad about that?

+Slawomir Oleksy nada, brotha! I just love that riff!!

+bassmanchip I think they meant "intentionally showing the bass player," not "he wandered into the shot so we kept it." :D

Josh Neilson I know I wanted to see it and copy it lol

soothing

Just realized I missed this guy playing at a bar a block from my house tonight. Crap.

1:07 **

I can listen to this song over and over again and never get tired of it.

+Debra Harris Same, Debra!

I second this! Smooth af

One of those those songs you wish were a little longer

Exactly

nat bad for a lacrosse player from loyola

+Andrew Robinson that makes me like him more
