I SPENT HALF MY LIFE
ON BENDED KNEE
BEGGIN' SOMEBODY
TO CHANGE
AND THE OTHER HALF
PRAYIN' TO GOD
THAT THEY NEVER
WOULD
AND ALL IT GOT ME
WAS TWICE AS LOST
WHEN IT ALL TURNED
OUT THE SAME
BUT ALL THAT BEGGIN'
FINALLY DID
SOMEBODY GOOD
I USED TO DREAM
ALL NIGHT
OF A DAY
THAT WAS GONE
BUT COME THE
MORNING LIGHT
FOREVER FROM
NOW ON
I'M GONNA DO
MY DREAMING
WITH MY EYES
WIDE OPEN
I'LL DO MY LOOKIN' BACK
WITH MY EYES CLOSED
WE CAN DO SOME LIVIN'
OR SPEND OUR
WHOLE LIFE HOPIN'
CAUSE IN THE END
WE'RE LEFT
WITH THE ONE
WE CHOSE
SO I'LL DO MY
DREAMIN'
WITH MY EYES
WIDE OPEN
8 BAR
BREAK
EVERY TIME THE WORLD
MOVED ON
I FELL A LITTLE
FURTHER BEHIND
FROM RUNNING BACK
OR FOLLOWING
SOMEONE HOME
UNTIL I LEARNED THAT
ONE STEP FORWARD
WILL TAKE YOU
FURTHER ON
THAN A THOUSAND
BACK
OR A MILLION
THAT AIN'T
YOUR OWN
I USED TO DREAM
ALL NIGHT
OF A DAY
THAT WAS GONE
BUT COME THE
MORNING LIGHT
FOREVER FROM
NOW ON
GONNA DO
MY DREAMING
WITH MY EYES
WIDE OPEN
I'LL DO MY LOOKIN' BACK
WITH MY EYES CLOSED
WE CAN DO SOME LIVIN'
OR SPEND OUR
WHOLE LIFE HOPIN'
CAUSE IN THE END
WE'RE LEFT
WITH THE ONE
WE CHOSE
SO I'LL DO MY DREAMIN'
WITH MY EYES
WIDE OPEN
8 BAR
BREAK
WE CAN DO SOME
LIVING
OR SPEND OUR
WHOLE LIFE HOPIN'
IN THE END WE'RE LEFT
WITH THE ONE
WE CHOSE
SO I'LL DO
MY DREAMING
WITH MY EYES
WIDE OPEN
