Lyrics
0:09The light was shining in my eyes before I closed them
0:17And all the dreams I had the night before came back
0:24The faces that I'd seen looked so familiar
0:31But they're just strangers I haven't met them yet
0:39I know the morning is wiser than the evening
0:46I know that wrong and right can sometimes look the same
0:53So many things I know but they don't help me
1:00Each day I open up my eyes and start again
1:07The light comes shining in my eyes
1:11The light comes shining in my eyes
1:14The light comes shining in my eyes
1:17The light comes shining in my eyes
1:21So many stories I want to tell you
1:28I wish that I could show you the many things I've seen
1:35You and your daddy you both look like poets
1:42Your eyes are open wide while you are in a dream
1:49I know the morning is wiser than the nighttime
1:56I know there's nothing wrong I shouldn't feel so down
2:03So many things I know but they don't help me
2:10Each day I open up my eyes to look around
2:17The sun comes shining in my eyes
2:21The sun comes shining in my eyes
2:24The sun comes shining in my eyes
2:28The sun comes shining in my eyes
2:32Are closed now
2:38Count the stars inside your mind
2:45Count the breaths count heartbeats
2:53Count the sounds of life
3:06The light was shining in my eyes before I closed them
3:13And all the dreams I had the night before were gone
3:20The faces that I'd seen looked so familiar
3:28But I forgot them all when I saw the sun
3:36I know the morning is wiser than the evening
3:42I know that all of life just happens in between
3:50So many things I know but they don't help me
3:57Each day I open up my eyes and it begins
4:05The light comes shining in my eyes
4:08The light comes shining in my eyes
4:11The light comes shining in my eyes
4:15The light comes shining in my eyes
4:18The light the light the light the light
4:32The light the light
The light was shining in my eyes before I closed them And all the dreams I had the night before came back The faces that I'd seen looked so familiar But they're just strangers I haven't met them yet I know the morning is wiser than the evening I know that wrong and right can sometimes look the same So many things I know but they don't help me Each day I open up my eyes and start again The light comes shining in my eyes The light comes shining in my eyes The light comes shining in my eyes The light comes shining in my eyes So many stories I want to tell you I wish that I could show you the many things I've seen You and your daddy you both look like poets Your eyes are open wide while you are in a dream I know the morning is wiser than the nighttime I know there's nothing wrong I shouldn't feel so down So many things I know but they don't help me Each day I open up my eyes to look around The sun comes shining in my eyes The sun comes shining in my eyes The sun comes shining in my eyes The sun comes shining in my eyes Are closed now Count the stars inside your mind Count the breaths count heartbeats Count the sounds of life The light was shining in my eyes before I closed them And all the dreams I had the night before were gone The faces that I'd seen looked so familiar But I forgot them all when I saw the sun I know the morning is wiser than the evening I know that all of life just happens in between So many things I know but they don't help me Each day I open up my eyes and it begins The light comes shining in my eyes The light comes shining in my eyes The light comes shining in my eyes The light comes shining in my eyes The light the light the light the light The light the light
