Nathalie Nordnes - Open Your Eyes lyrics

As I turn off the bed light And close my eyes to fall asleep The sound of music fills the room And enters my sweet dreams It creaks and groans in stairs and doors A hum of voices hums I search the house and what's weird There's no one here it could come from Open your eyes Open your eyes See how the flowers have grown See how the beauty is gone Open your eyes Open your eyes There's the house that we no longer own And our cat is dead, buried and gone A gentleman walks up to me And asks me for a dance His hands are cold, but eyes reveal I'm his true love and romance An old piano plays our song The party takes the floor I've known this man my entire life Though he doesn't live no more Open your eyes Open your eyes See how the garden has grown See how my beauty is gone Open the doors Open the doors There's the house that we no longer own And our cat is dead, buried and gone He carries me to bed The morning after, folks have gone What's left is the same old piano And a song that we both know About Henrik and Nathalie He died long before she was born They meet in her dreams And after life They will share what was never begun Open your eyes Open your eyes See what you wanted to see It's there if you only believe Open your eyes Open your eyes I promise that we'll meet again We both know where, but I don't know when
