Open Up Your Eyes
A single rose left to rememberAs a single tear falls from her eyeAnother cold day in DecemberA year from the day she said goodbye
Seems it's only been a momentSince the angels took him from her armsAnd she was left there holding on to their tomorrowBut as they laid him in the groundHer heart would sing without a sound
For the first time you can open your eyesAnd see the world without your sorrowAnd no one knows the pain you left behindAnd all the peace you could never findIs waiting there to hold and keep youWelcome to the first day of your lifeJust open up your eyes
A single lifetime lays behind herAs she draws her final breathJust beyond the door he'll find herTaking her hand he softly says
For the first time you can open your eyesAnd see the world without your sorrowAnd no one knows the pain you left behindAnd all the peace you could never findIs waiting there to hold and keep youWelcome to the first day of your lifeJust open up your eyes
Just open up your eyes as I lay you down tonightSafe on the other side, no more tears to cry
For the first time you can open your eyesAnd see the world without your sorrowAnd no one knows the pain you left behindAnd all the peace you could never findIs waiting there to hold and keep youWelcome to the first day of your lifeJust open up your eyes
