With My Eyes Wide Open - Frankie Valli

With my eyes wide open

With my feet on the ground

Standing face to the sun

Feel the taste on my tounge

Bitter sorrow, dear Lord

With my eyes wide open

With my heart in my hand

Saying prayers in the night

Please take care of the light

For tomorrow, my Lord

What kind of place can we create in hate?

What makes your mind so negative?

I keep on hearing how it’s getting late

Good God now something’s gotta give

Where are the love lines to write

Where are the new notes to play

Give me the changes to make me smile

Sad songs away

With my eyes wide open

With my back to the wind

Reaching out for the sign

Take this doubt from my mind

Can you hear me?

Dear Lord

With my eyes wide open

With my faith burning bright

You’re the flame I can touch

Not a pain or a blush

C’mon near me, sweet Lord

In my opinion and for all it’s worth

You’ve got the garden for my seed

If anybody’s gonna save this Earth

Don’t sit around and watch it bleed

Where are the love lines to write

Where are the new notes to play

Give me the changes to make me smile

Sad songs away

Where are the lines that flow through poetry

For you and me

Where are the new notes to play

Give me the changes now to make me smile

And take the sad song away

Where are, where are the words for you and me?

Where are, where are new notes to play?

Give me the changes now to make me smile

And take the sad song away
