Level 42 - I Want Eyes

it's late I know but I can't sleep
peace of mind is hard to keep
I saw it on the news today
a thousand lives just blown away

I want eyes
I want eyes

another page in history
but the why is still a mystery
won't you come so we can talk this through
do you need me now like I need you

I want eyes
I want eyes

on the beach lies a boy
thrown away like a toy
in the field lies a man
left behind, he was calling, calling
no one saw him die

sitting there you're telling me
that everything is meant to be
but when I say I can't go on
I know I'm not the only one
I just can't live on planet hope
and watch the world go up in smoke
I don't know how to face the facts
when I see a child respond to impact

I want eyes
I want eyes
I want eyes
I want eyes

so I wake every night
with the same dream in mind
in a field there's a man
left behind, he was calling, calling
no one saw me cry

call
