Open Your Eyes

As you open your eyes in the morning Life is a beautiful affair
And struggle to rise to your feet Open your eyes to see what's there
Keep your eyes opened wide Keep your gaze far above the ground
look around you Open your eyes look around
Discover the beauty you greet
When you look As the afternoon sun fast approaches
and discover the morning And the shadows now
Notice all of the beauty around dance on the wall
All the rays of the sun on your window Draw your eyes to the view
And the patterns from the window
they throw on the ground And the sounds of the birds
as they call
Life is a beautiful affair There is beauty in everything living
Open your eyes to see what's there But we take it for granted each day
Keep your gaze far above the ground Open your eyes look around you
Open your eyes look around For tomorrow is not yet today

Let the noise of the birds Life is a beautiful affair
fill your senses Open your eyes to see what's there
See the visions of them when in flight Keep your gaze far above the ground
Catch your breath Open your eyes look around
lest you miss just one moment
And the day turns around into night Open your eyes look around
As the hands of the clock Just open your eyes, look around.......
slowly move round
Notice all of the seconds go by Jane Shields (C)
Open your eyes look around you
Live life and laugh till you cry
