Tired but I’m wide awake mind spinning like a big city laundromat
Thinking of all the things I wanna’ do and coulda’ done
A thousand cars on jagged streets each with four wheels and a different mind
And I got naked toes on green green grass

Do you ever wish you could read your life like a book?
Do ever wanna’ read your story page by page?
I wish that I could read ahead, see what I kept and what I left behind
To see what really makes a man and what he can find in unfamiliar places
in unfamiliar places

Eyes Wide Open
Eyes wide open when they should be shut

Can’t say that I’ve got no regrets. Can’t say I’ve never cried.
When blue I paint golden grass on grey grey skies.
A song’s always a friend to me behind these tired eyes.
A friend to me in silence and in sound
I’ll always set a prayer and see a little angel there

Eyes Wide Open
Eyes wide open when they should be shut
Eyes Wide Open
Eyes wide open when they should be shut

If you could see the face of god would you turn and look away?
Like staring at the sun would you sneeze and fold in two?
Do you think he’d still be smiling with all his scars and his blinded eyes?
Do you think he still sings hallelujah?

Hallelujah. Do you think he still sings hallelujah?
Hallelujah. Do you think he still sings hallelujah?
