Staring You In The Face

Open your eyes, see what you're missing.
Open your eyes, see what you're missing.

Gazing to the heavens for a sign from up above.
Waiting for an angel to bring you ever lasting love.
You're searching the skies for a saving grace
When the answer's by your side.

It's staring you in the face.
Open your eyes and look at me.
It's staring you in the face.
You'll be surprised at what you see.

Open your eyes, see what you're missing.
Open your eyes, see what you're missing.

Digging through devotion for that diamond in the rough.
You push aside the tally of what was never good enough.
Maybe the prize is in a different place.
Can you be so blind?

It's staring you in the face.
Open your eyes and look at me.
It's staring you in the face.
You'll be surprised at what you see.

Running from lies in an endless race
When the truth ain't far behind.

Open your eyes, see what you're missing.
You're blind, the sign says come and love me.
