Intro: #1: 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 the day that was gone But come the mornin' light forever from now on Gonna 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 life hopin' 'Cause in the end we're left with the one we chose So, I'll do my dreaming with my eyes wide open Instrumental Break: #2: Every time the world moved on, I fell a little further behind From runnin' back or followin' someone home Till 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 the day that was gone But come the mornin' light forever from now on Gonna 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 life hopin' 'Cause in the end we're left with the one we chose So, I'll do my dreaming with my eyes wide open Instrumental Break: Outro: 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 dreaming with my eyes wide open
