I Want Eyes - Level 42

It’s late I know but I can’t sleep

Peace of mind is hard to keep

I saw it on the news today

A thousand lives just blown away

I want eyes

I want eyes

Another page in history

But the why is still a mystery

Won’t you come so we can talk this through

Do you need me now like I need you

I want eyes

I want eyes

On the beach lies a boy

Thrown away like a toy

In the field lies a man

Left behind, he was calling, calling

No one saw him die

Sitting there you’re telling me

That everything is meant to be

But when I say I can’t go on

I know I’m not the only one

I just can’t live on planet hope

And watch the world go up in smoke

I don’t know how to face the facts

When I see a child respond to impact

I want eyes

I want eyes

I want eyes

I want eyes

So I wake every night

With the same dream in mind

In a field there’s a man

Left behind, he was calling, calling

No one saw me cry

Call
