OPEN MY EYES                                                       for Archie
BY JACKIE BAYER

Verse 1: The window that I’m looking’ out
Is dirty and unclear.
I can’t see what’s ahead
Or what is drawing near.
My mind is broken
And shattered to nothing.
I don’t know what my
Window will bring…

Refrain: Open my eyes
So I can see it all
Open my eyes
To the light of day
I never thought my window
Would be a wall
Between me and
The constant way…
So come with me
And we’ll run free.
Thanks for opening
My eyes for me.

Verse 2: How long have I
Been sitting here,
Trying to look out
For what I fear?
It’s clear to me now—
I can’t look out anymore.
My foggy window
Is not my door…

Refrain: Open my eyes
So I can see it all
Open my eyes
To the light of day
I never thought my window
Would be a wall
Between me and
The constant way…
So come with me
And we’ll run free.
Thanks for opening
My eyes for me.

Verse 3: How did you know
To come to my rescue?
How did you already see
That I was true?
But it’s now alright,
We’ll be okay.
I finally threw
My dirty window away…

Refrain: Open my eyes
So I can see it all
Open my eyes
To the light of day
I never thought my window
Would be a wall
Between me and
The constant way…
So come with me
And we’ll run free.
Thanks for opening
My eyes for me.

Bridge: I got a new window
To see what’s ahead.
I have also cleared
My heart and head.

Come with me
To look out my window…

Refrain: Open my eyes
So I can see it all
Open my eyes
To the light of day
I never thought my window
Would be a wall
Between me and
The constant way…
So come with me
And we’ll run free.
Thanks for opening
My eyes for me.

Thanks for opening
My eyes for me.
