Open Your Eyes Songtext

(Wetton/Downes)

What on earth are you doing here, in the western world?
Another situation yeah you're a different girl
You have lived your life dreaming you were someone else
Succeeding's believing in yourself

Open Your Eyes
And see the world that stands before you now
Open Your Eyes
And see the world that stands in front of you

You have spent your days trying something new
You have looked at magazine girls wishing that they were you
Do you see in photographs an angel that once was you?
Does she tell you stories that are true?

If I could stand with you right now and speak my mind
I would tell you no lies
I would shoot straight between the eyes

You have stared a thousand times right into the lens
Have you ever thought just once, does it all make sense?
Your beauty's eternal so don't just pretend
Got to wake up girl, or it's the end
