Eyes wide open all the time
Just like a drug store in the city
Where she walks the streets at night
Time keeps ticking like the ocean through a siv
Ever on ever forward in a march

Hallelujah
And she's one for the money
To for the show time to go
Back to life back to dreams
Without tears
She's saving what she killed
She built herself a room
To spin around her womb

She's saying good bye bye
To the world now
She's saying good bye bye bye
To the world now

Life is heavy of
Mistakes have come to call her
Always close and dear never far behind
Floating just above the surface
Of their waves their nightmares wait
But come again when she wakes

Hallelujah
And she's one for the money
To for the show time to go
Back to life back to dreams
Without fears
She's saving what she killed
She built herself a room
To spin around her womb

She's saying good bye bye (bye)
To the world now

Eyes wide open all the time
Just like a drug store in the city
Where she walks the streets at night



Behind the Song:
'I wrote this on an airplane. I hate to fly, and I was tapping my foot and a tune popped up in my head. The anxiety in my brain about the flight led to the sad story that is 'Eyes Wide Open.'' - Leigh Nash (Sixpence None The Richer)
