Eyes Wider Than Before - Scott Matthews

I love that distant beam of light

and (?) neon floods my weary eyes

it illuminates my soul, is inspired

I’m heading your way with the traffic

by my side

remember how it was before

just a minute away

I’ll be knocking on your front door

don’t underestimate, this place is tired

every second is treated as though

there is no time

Your eyes are wider than before

So little has changed

but your eyes now see much more

hush, now sway and fall asleep

gonna drive you away from the trampling of bustling feet

you can lose your troubled thoughts

for tonight at least

you can wake in the morning

feeling that you can breathe

little darling you’re mine for tonight

your mellow and tender self

is hard to climb

from you, I turn all doubts deep inside

I surrender myself to your presence

and peace of mind

Your eyes are wider than before

So little has changed

but your eyes now see much more

so much more

so, so much more

so much more

so much more
