Dreaming With My Eyes Wide Open Lyrics

(tony arata) I spent half my life on bended knee Begging somebody to change And the other half prayin´to god That they never would And all it got me was twice as lost When it all turned out the same But all that beggin?finally did somebody good I used to dream all night Of a day that was gone But come the morning light Forever from now on Gonna do my dreaming with my eyes wide open I´ll do my looking back With my eyes closed We can do some living Or spend our whole life hopin? In the end we´re left with The one we chose So i´ll do my dreaming with my eyes wide open Every time the world moved on I fell a little further behind From running back or following someone home Until i learned that one step forward Will take you further on Than a thousand back or a million that ain´t Your own I used to dream all night Of a day that was gone But come the morning light Forever from now on Gonna do my dreaming with my eyes wide open I´ll do my looking back With my eyes closed We can do some living Or spend our whole life hopin? In the end we´re left with The one we chose So i´ll do my dreaming with my eyes wide open We can do some living Or spend our whole life hopin? In the end we´re left with The one we chose So i´ll do my dreaming with my eyes wide open
