Sixpence None The Richer Lyrics
"Eyes Wide Open"

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 sieve
ever on or ever forward in a march

hallelujah
and she's one for the money
two for the show time to go
back to life back to dreams
without tears
she's saving what she killed
she'll build herself a loom
and spin another womb

she's saying good bye bye bye
to the world now
she's saying good bye bye bye
to the world now

life is heavy now
mistakes have come to call they're
always close and tears are never far behind
floating just above the surface
of their brains her nightmares wait
but come again when she wakes

hallelujah
and she's one for the money
two for the show time to go
back to life back to dreams
without fears
she's saving what she killed
she'll build herself a room
and spin within her womb

she's saying good bye bye bye
to the world now
she's saying good bye bye bye
to the world now
she's saying good bye bye
to the world now
she's saying good bye bye bye
to the world now
she's saying good bye bye
to the world now
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
