Lyrics Sophie B. Hawkins

Sophie B. Hawkins

Open Up Your Eyes

If I had the moon in a jar

I'd wanna share it with you

Or the light of a million stars

I'd wanna share it with you

The hidden knowledge to the way things are

I'd love to share that with you

But all I have is my heart

I can't control my feelings

I wanna lay with you nude at night

Open up your eyes and see I've never compromised my spirit

I can't persuade my conscience

I need you whether it's wrong or it's right

I know how to fly I've only

Waited for someone to teach me to steer it

If I could show the world on a screen

I'd wanna share it with you

The life story of every human being

I'd wanna share it with you

The inner mystery of the outer scheme

Oh I'd love I'd Love I'd love to share that with you

But all I have is a dream

I can't control my feelings

I wanna lay with you nude at night

Open up your eyes and see I've never compromised my spirit

I can't persuade my conscience

I need you whether it's wrong or it's right

I know how to fly I've only

Waited for someone to teach me to steer it

If I had a place on the shore

I'd wanna share it with you

Or a backstreet paved in gold

Oh you know I'd share that with you

A time machine and an old riverboat

I'd wanna share it with you

But all I have is my soul

(better turn the lights on the runway)

I wanna lay with you nude at night

Open up your eyes, open up your eyes

open up your eyes darlin'

I wanna lay with you nude tonight
