Open Your Eyes lyrics

When I was younger I used to wait anticipate Mark my calendar on the release date So Id be the first to hear the brilliant things youd say Id skip luch for a week Save up all my money To be the first kid on the block to own your brand new CD Open your eyes open your eyes open your eyes Whos gonna show me how to laugh Open your mouth open your mouth open your mouth Whos gonna show me how to Whos going to show me how to laugh? Whos going to jerk tears from my eyes Ive memorized every last word and every note So now whos going to write the songs I wish the songs I always wish I wrote that song So did you think you didnt matter anymore That you werent changing peoples lives Well youre wrong Such poignant words from you I heard Thoughts and emotions that were worth so much more than a cheap slogan on a t-shirt
