We've been sleeping far too long Hiding from the shadows that divide us Somewhere the dream has all gone wrong Afraid to know the fear that walks beside us It's time to face what's been tearing us apart Time to face the darkness in our hearts I'm waiting If I could see the world through your eyes Would my heart be so cold From all the lies I've been sold Maybe if I saw the world through your eyes Love wouldn't go astray We wouldn't need to turn away So hard to know where to start To open up our souls to one another
Why do we tear ourselves apart Every time it rains we run for cover A hunger for the future brings a yearning to my soul A crying deep inside I just can't hold If I could see the world through your eyes Would the pain and trail of tears Fade away and disappear Maybe if I saw the world through your eyes We'd find another way To love again someday In from the dark into the light From all the pain and all the strife I knew it all would end Please let it be tonight Hold on
