Open your eyes, Simon!
_____
Open your eyes when you sing
_____
Closing my eyes brings me lots of benefits
_____
It's like spray-on confidence
_____
It helps me take the subject in better
_____
And above all to remember my lyrics
_____
Open your eyes when you sing
_____
I close my eyes and I go on trips
_____
I sing and in an instant I take off
_____
That lets me imagine characters
_____
And above all remember my lyrics
_____
Open your eyes when you sing
_____
But sometimes when I shut my eyelids
_____
I wonder what's happening up front
_____
Because it's not always in other universes
_____
That the best novels unfold
_____
When I open my eyes, I see the beauty around me
_____
I meet lots of eyes, I get lots of love
_____
I see boys I knew at school
_____
And I don't mind forgetting my lyrics anymore
_____
Open your eyes when you sing
_____
Open your eyes when you sing
_____
I open my eyes when I sing
_____
Open your eyes when you sing
_____
I sing with my eyes open
