Bright Eyes

Oh bright eyes
Where have you gone
These days are lies
But I could be wrong

To think that we held our hopes
In the palms of our hands
We woke up these dreams
Setting fire to all doubts and demands

Oh bright eyes
Where have you gone
These cloudy skies
Have held on too long

To think that we once moved mountains
With the promise of a new day
Only to find, what we left behind
Wasn’t worth the worry anyway

Oh bright eyes
Where have you gone
My dreams have died
Like the end of a sad song

To think that life is here
And then it’s not
You try and make something of it
And be grateful for all you’ve got
‘Cause it’s all you’ve got

Oh bright eyes
Where have you gone
How long till I realize
You’ve been here all along
