[Lyric] How Do I Open His Eyes (Gianluca Cucchiara & Andrew James Whelan)

I know him by heart
I savour every moment of him
Right here inside me
But he doesn′t see
He only sees the child that he knew
A memory
The seasons have flown
The gentle breeze of childhood has passed
And at last I know it's him that I need
I′m only truly real when he's here
And near me
The world is madness when he looks at me

And the air turns into fire
And the sky falls down around us
I would run to him and hold him
He'd never let mе go
But I can′t move
And I can′t speak
I'm overthrown by silеnce
How do I open his eyes?
Now he is walking into danger
I don′t want him to go
All I know is if he leaves I'll never be
Who he needs
Who he loves

And the air will turn to fire
And the sky will hang unmoving
I can′t run to him or hold him
He'll never even know
I can′t prove it
I just feel it
I need to stop him leaving
How do I open his eyes?

But he'll never see
He only sees the child that he knew
A memory
