Eyes Wide Open Lyrics - Singles - Over The Rhine

Eyes wide open 

To the great train robbery 

Of my soul 

Impending blindness 

Of the kind that's 

Beyond my control 

Eyes wide open 

To the secret forest 

Behind those tear-filled trees 

Heart rending blindness 

Won't testify that 

I'm on my knees 

Maybe I'm a little young to care 

Maybe I'm a little old to cry 

I don't know 

Maybe I'm a little weak to dance 

Maybe I'm a little strong to die 

I don't know 

Concentrating 

Love and I'm hating 

Myself again 

Impersonating 

The smallest shadow 

Of my original self again 

Maybe I'm a little young to care 

Maybe I'm a little old to cry 

I don't know 

Maybe I'm a little weak to dance 

Maybe I'm a little strong to die 

I don't know 

Does anybody really want to grasp my hand 

and lift me to my feet? 

Does anybody really want to be the breeze 

that frightens off this heat? 

Eyes wide open 

Maybe I'm a little young to love 

Eyes wide open 

Maybe I'm a little young to love 

Eyes wide open 

Maybe I'm a little young to love 

Eyes wide open 

Maybe I'm a little young to love 

Maybe I'm a little young to love 

Maybe I'm a little young to love
