Dreaming With My Eyes Open lyrics

I spent half my life on bended knee
Begging 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 mornin` light
Forever from now on

(chorus)

Gunna do my dreamin` with my eyes wide open
I`ll do my looking back
With my eyes closed
We can do some livin`
Or spend our whole lives hopin`
End the end we`re left with
The one we chose
So I`ll do my dreaming with my eyes wide open

Every time the world moved on
I fell a little further behind
>From runnin` back or followin 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 mornin` light
Forever from now on

(chorus)

We can do some livin`
or spend our whole lives hopin`
In the end we`re left with
The ones we chose
So I`ll do my dreaming with my eyes wide open
