Dreaming with My Eyes Open

'Dreaming With My Eyes Open'
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 the day that was gone
But come the mornin light
Forever from now on
Gonna do my dreamin
With my eyes wide open
Ill do my looking back
With my eyes closed
We can do some livin
Or spend our whole life hopin
Cause in the end were left with
The one we chose
So, Ill do my dreaming
With my eyes wide open
Every time the world moved on
I fell a little further behind
From runnin back
Or followin someone home
Till I learned that one step forward
Will take you further on
Than a thousand back
Or a million that aint your own
I used to dream all night
Of the day that was gone
But come the mornin light
Forever from now on
Gonna do my dreamin
With my eyes wide open
Ill do my looking back
With my eyes closed
We can do some livin
Or spend our whole life hopin
But in the end were left with
The one we chose
So, Ill do my dreaming
With my eyes wide open
We can do some livin
Or spend our whole life hopin
Cause in the end were left with
The one we chose
So, Ill do my dreaming
With my eyes wide open
