Lyrics
Dont' cry when you feel the world around you shattering your peace-of-mind,
Don't cry, can you hear the voice of reason telling you it's gonna be fine?
This feeling's got the best of you
Leave it behind, I'll be here to hold onto
Open your eyes, Open your eyes
Every time you feel like you're alone
Just open your eyes
Don't cry when you find that hopeless feeling, filling every space in your mind,
Don't cry, can you feel the air you're breathing telling you it's gonna be fine
This feeling's got the best of you
Leave it behind, I'll be here to hold onto
Open your eyes, Open your eyes
Every time you feel like you're alone
Just open your eyes
I'll be waiting here hoping you'll see
Nothing else will matter when you're with me, with me
Open your eyes, Open your eyes
Every time you feel like you're alone
Open your eyes, Open your eyes
Every time you feel like you're alone
Just open your eyes, just open your eyes
