Eyes Wider Than Before

Matthews Scott

Oh Lord, a distant beam of light
The jab of neon floods my weary eyes
It illuminates my soul reasons why
I'm heading your way with the traffic on my side

Remember how it was before
Just a minute away, I'll be knocking on your front door
Don't underestimate this precious time
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 soul is hard to find
From you I draw no 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
