The final track on Sometimes There's a Way is "Sometimes Eyes".
Back in my early songwriting days I had a preference for short titles. “Sometimes in the Darkness” and “Sometimes Eyes” ended up both having the title “Sometimes” so I had to rename them. Since I picked both of them to be on my first release, I decided to go with Sometimes There’s A Way for the album title. “Sometimes Eyes” was one of those songs that went through some editing. There is repetition and a definite structure to the verses. The chorus was added later. I had to craft a smooth transition and merge them into one song. Looking at the song now it seems so simple. The time and effort I put into it was well worth it. I put a lot of thought into which songs would start and end the album. “Sometimes in the Darkness” is about fooling yourself that a relationship is better than it is. Ending the album with “Sometimes Eyes”, a song about clearly knowing it is better for a relationship to be over, brings the theme of broken relationships full circle.
