If both my tired eyes could see
Then there would be time to wake
And for those who hear my words
Would it cause their hearts to quake?
If you close your eyes like me
And describe all that you see
Light Sweet Magic Feather Touch
That’s what we crave so much….
I would be holding back the truth
If I said I did not see
This blackened storm is brewing now
But one day I will be free
If you close your eyes in hope
That it will not pass you by
Light Sweet Magic Feather Touch
That’s what we crave so much….
These burning eyes; turn them away
They are tortured and abused
I remember all so well
Though it’s clouded and confused
If you open up your eyes
You will find you’re going blind
Light Sweet Magic Feather Touch
That’s what we crave so much….
