Doctor my eyes....

Have seen the years
And the slow parade of tears
Without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good
Without hiding
You must help me if you can

Doctor my eyes..
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise
To leave them open for so long?

As I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled
I've been waiting
To awaken from these dreams
People go just where they will
I never noticed them until
I got this feeling
That it's later than it seemed

Doctor my eyes...
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries
Just say if it's too late for me

Doctor my eyes...
They cannot see the sky
Is the price
For having learned how not to cry?
Doctor my eyes..
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries
Just say if it's too late for me
