Open your eyes girl
Open 'em wide and see
'Tis such a beautiful dawn
Clear, pure, fresh, alive;
Whence the charm that spawn.
Your sunup chin,
Your dazzling profile
Makes many a fair maid throw spite
Makes many a man’s heart flutter;
Handsome Phoebus does a shameful smile.
Oh! You have had your eyes closed
For so long, that you’re misled
And is it because of me
Do you hate e’en my face;
That, if true, I had not intended.
So open your eyes girl
And see me, I stand right here
With the sunshine on my shoulders
But with you in front
Who can hold back a tear.
Come on girl
Speak the truth, for I hate lies
If it not be your warmth
Do not give me that icy stare
At least make 'em long goodbyes.
