“Just a Look” - XINOTA
I love this song. It's so simple and catchy! I actually wrote and recorded most of it a year and 1/2 before releasing it on the album. It was important to have my wife on the track, so we had to be patient and finish it together when we could do it in person. We worked on lyric and harmony ideas together just a couple weeks shy of the release date. The result was magical, and she sounds so good on the track!

Lyrics:
“Just a Look”
Singer 1:
You couldn’t see beyond your own endeavors
You thought that you would be this way forever
You contemplated how someone could love you
Lost and oblivious to all your value
Then you noticed someone who looked past it all
Beautiful, intelligent, she had it all
Just a look from her could lift the darkest day
Challenging you to be more, don’t hesitate
Just a look... just a look
Singer 2:
You couldn’t see behind the pain and sorrow
You thought that all the thorns would stay forever
You never knew that love could be like this
This opportunity you almost missed
But then there he was,
Someone to call your home
Something clicked inside your heart, electrical
Just a look from him could
Lift the darkest day
Ready to walk through this door
Don’t hesitate
Just a look... just a look
Just a look... just a look
