Lyrics
Open My Eyes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I looked for light, I looked for revelation
Nothing was there, I felt so out of place and
Out in the dark and running out of patience
I searched and searched and nothing seemed to make sense
You came to me, you blew away the memory
In the middle of the night when I was sleeping
You spoke to me and said I wasn't dreaming
You are the realest thing that I've seen now
And now I look to the future, I look to you
And I see visions of you
Days gone by in black and white 'til you saved me from the night
I never knew what I had missed
I never been in love like this
In high definition, technicolor vision
I never knew what I had missed
I never been in love like this
Suddenly I see, open my eyes (suddenly)
She works me out, she uses every piece of me
She turns me up with always such intensity
I feel the way, her passion washing over me
Out of the shadow in, I'm falling in deep
And now I look to the future, I look to you
And I see visions of you
Days gone by in black and white 'til you saved me from the night
I never knew what I had missed
I never been in love like this
In high definition, technicolor vision
I never knew what I had missed
I never been in love like this
Suddenly love finally (?)
Suddenly everything's clear to me (suddenly)
Oh oh oh, suddenly (Yeah)
Days gone by,
Days gone by in black and white 'til you saved me from the night
I never knew what I had missed
I never been in love like this
In high definition, technicolor vision
I never knew what I had missed
I never been in love like this
Suddenly I see (suddenly I)
Open my eyes (suddenly)
Suddenly I see, suddenly..
