Walking around with the street lights out trying to make sense of everything,
I've paid my dues and done my time, but these questions still intrigue my mind,
Trying to see life in the black and white yet I'm stuck here in the gray,
there's nothing one can do or say so I turned and walked away, and you said
Close your eyes and open your heart, cuz you'll never ever see the unseen,
if you find it by your own means, so close your eyes and open your heart,
cuz you'll never truly know what love is if you keep these misconceptions oh
People say this and people say that they follow just like sheep, with symbols
of their love and peace but do they know just what they mean, children are
starving people are dying they dance right to the song, in bliss they live in
ignorance they've embraced for oh so long and you said
Close your eyes and open your heart yea open your heart, close your eyes and
open your heart yea open your heart
Cuz we'll all be blind if we don't just close our eyes, oh I want the world
to see what you've make me to believe, cuz we'll all be blind if we don't just
close our eyes, oh I want the world to see what you've make me to believe,
to be free
Close your eyes, close your eyes and open your heart
I feel you when the rain falls down and I feel you in the thunder clouds when
they roar around me, I feel you in the moonlit night and I feel you when the
wind takes flight and my hair goes crazy
Cuz your love is all around me and I know your right beside me oh such a
beautiful thing, I close my eyes and see you and God I know its all true oh,
such a beautiful thing
I feel you in the child's laugh, and I see you in the helping hands that are
all around me, I feel you in loves embrace and I see you in his smiling face
when he looks right at me
Such a beautiful thing when you sing the rain and you tell your story of the
wind such a beautiful thing when you see my pain and you tell the story how
it brought your glory what a beautiful thing
Cuz your love is all around me and I know your right beside me oh such a
beautiful thing, I close my eyes and see you and God I know its all true oh,
such a beautiful thing such a beautiful thing such a beautiful thing
Excuse me let me introduce myself, I thought I was your friend. But now I'm
starting to wonder after what you just said. Cuz you stabbed me with your verbal
knife and I'm lying here on the floor and I'm wondering where the love went cuz
I see it no more.
Cuz you love me, then you love me not, and you smile at me, then you trip me
up, cuz I know love is a verb and yes I know it is a noun, and I know it's not
the way you are treating me now, forget love not.
This world is full of hate and people who can't communicate. I really wish we
weren't apart of this group that's so irate. Cuz our love keeps flipping back
and forth, just like a two faced politician and I wish that we would drop this
now and show the world what love's about.
This world it needs love, yeah that much is so, it screams for it wherever I go.
If we all loved each other, like we loved ourselves. What a better place this
world would be, what a better person we would make if we forget love not.
Forget love not.
