OPEN UP YOUR EYES

You can't tell me that you're knowin' what you say
I can't believe you know you're hurtin' me this way
I can't believe it what do you think you'll find
Help me understand what's on your mind
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes now darlin'
You say it's over. It's time for movin' on
You say it's time my love was gone
But I can't shut you off you're deep inside my soul
Without you near I can't be whole
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
I remember the time I first say you
And I remember how you held me so near
So if you're going just kiss me as you're leavin'
And you remember that I'll always be here
I'll always be here
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes now darlin'
You're makin' a mistake now darlin'
Open up your eyes
There's not another man who'll love you more dear
Open up your eyes
Tell me what to do to make you stay now
Open up your eyes
Look at what you're throwin' away girl
Open up your eyes
I'm cryin'
I'm cryin'
I'm cryin'
I'm cryin' for you
