Behind Your Eyes
I found you on your knees, You were praying for release From the city, I feel your pity And it comes as no surprise, I can see it in your eyes That you are waiting, you are praying
For miracles to come, Angels from the sun To take away your pain and say 'You're free to live your life as you like'
When you Give with arms open wide, To the world before your eyes Your journey is long but you will be strong, In the world behind your eyes
You were shooting from the hip, There were lies upon your lips And you were shrinking, never linking Your head with your heart, They were rivers and hills apart Until the mirror, showed a glimmer
Of the light that lights the world, Through time and space it hurls Its beam upon a searching soul and lifts up your face to the Grace
When you Give with arms open wide, To the world before your eyes Your journey is long but you will be strong, In the world behind your eyes
And yes there'll be times when love looks an island, Far away in the land of the Sun But you will get up and see there's a reason why your life began
You can Give with arms open wide, To the world before your eyes Your journey is long but you will be strong, In the world behind your eyes
Show me that you can Give with arms open wide, To the world before your eyes You are strong - you are strong, In the world behind your eyes
Oh please give, please give, Oh give, please give, please give
