Open – Andy Shauf

Darling open your eyes
The sun came up
It’s just disguised
With a raincoat on
You’ll keep a fire inside
Without your glasses you’re blind
You took them off so you could find
A brand new way to see familiarity

You’ve got to open up your eyes to see
You’ve got to open up your eyes to see
To see

And on a hill that you climbed
Near summer’s end by autumn’s side
You gazed into a universal sky
And lost in deeper thoughts
You found a way to understand
Past a ticking clock strapped to the back of your hand

You said time will never wait for me
You said time will never wait for me
So wait for me

Do you see the white lights
The blue sky borrowed from the night
Retired long ago but still are shining bright
When you told me tomorrow never comes quite soon enough
I remember saying what about today
Yeah we are here today
Tomorrow always seems so far away
Tomorrow always seems so far away
