#Lovely Runner PL

Quiet Eyes by Sharon Van Etten
From the “Past Lives” OST. Just sublime. This is an incredibly moving song to me and the lyrics also fit the contemplative context of LR.

Quiet Eyes

Moving statues in the park
Mosaic faces fading in the rain
Recalling memories of loss
Yet untouched and unscathed
Is this really a mystery life?
Where we only learn from our own mistakes
Misstep, fall down stairs
Maybe you’re too wise for me
Your quiet eyes break my heart now
You’re calling out, you’re calling out despite it
A long car drive
Music in air
Comes from a place
Out of nowhere
Staring at stars or a lightning bug
On a faraway stair, on a torchlit night
The field of depth on those marble steps
We’ll meet again in light
That’s how it’s done
That’s how it’s done
And how it’s undone
That’s how it starts
That’s how it starts
And how it’s unknown
Fall, fall
Calling out in spite of it all
Fall, fall
Will we meet again in the light?

    I just caught Past Lives last weekend (so happy I managed to see it in theatres before it left) and loved it to bits – this is a fantastic song rec!!

      I’m so glad you saw it on the big screen. I just loved it. And this song is just amazing.
      Thank you for the great idea and for putting the LR DB OST!

        It’s a pity it didn’t win big at the Oscars, BAFTA, or Golden Globes—not that these are like the standard for whether a film is good or bad, but you know, when you love something you want it to be celebrated and receive the recognition it deserves everywhere it goes.

          💐🥰 Me too! I am listening to “Dandelions” by Ruth B and can’t get enough of it! So gorgeous.
          I know this is too much to ask but is there a way to know who recommended which song/s?

            Oooh, no not too much at all – unfortunately I don’t think there’s a way to add it to the playlist itself as a note, but I’ve got a running notes sheet that I was keeping to help keep track and it’s got the list of beanies & their recommendations so I can post that!!

    H/T to @elinor for giving me a heads up about “Quiet Eyes”. After seeing “Past Lives”, I fell for this song and the movie.
