OPEN YOUR EYES

My love for you is like the deep blue sea
You are the moon and your tides pull at me
It’s true, I don’t need you
But it’s true, I want you
So will you open your eyes?

You are the brewing storm raging at my shore
This shipwrecked sailor may not survive like before
It’s true, I don’t need you
But it’s true, I want you
So will you open your eyes?

I watch for signs you feel the same
My dream won’t die I can’t explain
So beautiful is this pain
And I know how this ends
Before the beginning

The waves crash down and take me deep within
I keep this ocean hidden well beneath my skin
It’s true, I don’t need you
But it’s true, I want you
So will you open your eyes? 

I watch for signs you feel the same
My dream can’t die I won’t explain
So beautiful is this pain
And I know how this ends
Before the beginning

Oh I want you
Now will you open your eyes?
