Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of fears without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hiding
You must help me if you can
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long
′Cause I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled
I′ve been waiting to awaken from these dreams
People go just where there will
I never noticed them until I got this feeling
That it′s later than it seems
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries
Just say if it′s too late for me
Doctor, my eyes
Cannot see the sky
Is this the prize for having learned how not to cry
