Open Your Eyes; Let Love Seep Through

Shattered is the widow, lying awake with such fright.
And, wasted is the man, when alcohol's seems so right.
**

Open your eyes; let love seep through -
there's more than the earth revolving for you.
**

Dreams of my fantasies, awaken me at night -
I'm holding on too tightly, struggling with all my might.
**

It settles in your heart, like a potion in the wind,
so easily brought on and such an astounding best friend.
**

I just need to . .
Open my eyes; let love seep through.
