La di da da da na Yeah Everybody loves to tell me I was born an old soul Better keep my eyes wide open There's so much that I don't know Just another hotel room Never felt so all alone I think about my granddad's eyes, And they always send me home I can almost hear him now Gotta make him proud I keep my eyes wide open Bless this ground, unbroken I'm about to make my way Heaven help me keep my faith And my eyes wide open La Whoa I can't see two steps ahead of me, When the fog comes rollin' in I never thought I'd miss the rain Lord knows how long it's been This dream burns inside of me, And I can't just let it go There's still so much that I don't know I keep my eyes wide open Bless this ground, unbroken I'm about to make my way Heaven help me keep my faith And my eyes wide open, yeah All I have is just this moment And I don't want to miss a second 'Cause it could all be gone in an instant Yeah, in an instant I keep my eyes wide open Bless this ground, unbroken I'm about to make my way Heaven help me keep my faith And my eyes wide open I'm about to make my way Heaven help me keep my faith My eyes wide open Keep my eyes wide open
