lyrics

Lonely eyes,
Even when you smile you've got those lonely eyes
Oh, deep inside no one understands
And sometimes late at night you cry
When all the world's a lullabye
All you hear is a lonely cry

Lonely eyes
Frightened by the life of love that's passed you by
Life is a day dream world
Of paper clowns and painted smiles
And sometimes late at night you cry
Awakened from another lie
Another dream that can never fly

Lonely eyes
Looking for a dream come true that will let you fly
Fly far away beyond the scars of the soul
And then at night you won't have to cry
You can spread your wings and touch the sky
And awake to find, It wasn't a lie

Lonely eyes
It's time to wake up and finally realize
The wings are right by your side
They've been there all the time
Surrendered for you with a lonely cry
Alone in the night someone died
At the cross roads of your lonely life

And now at night you don't have to cry,
You can spread your wings and touch the sky,
And awake to find it wasn't a lie.
