Hungry Eyes

Shall I compose a song with the flute, drums and bass guitar? Shall I sing the songs of my youth and exposed the truth? You see me standing over here trying to escape the omniscience fear, I have no clue how I got here, but I have one more day left before we do the final embrace and leave this place. Shall I cry out to the minstrel on the other side whose voices are mute? and their lives are burdened with the truth? or shall I open the Pandora box and let out the devious fox? My dreams are big as the universe, and I am determined to break the curse and live by my own truth and the heavens will dine with me. Shall I smile when you smile and cry when you cry? He stood there looking at me as if he had a message for thee, his eyes were wandering around and I could tell that he came from out of town He had a strange look on his face with a deep longing in his eyes and every time I look at him something deep down inside makes me want to sing, he has a forced smile blended with grace and no one could read his mysterious face. There was something peculiar about him; it is the way he was standing, as if he was hiding something, he was wearing two different pairs of with a double lace and his feet were wobbling all over the place and I broke my silence. When will you open the door and get the people on the dance floor When will you cross the bridge and cool down the temperature within My blood is running hot, and destiny is wearing a new frock, suspense is riding very high and mystical drones are flying in the skies I cannot take the suspense anymore you have got to open the next door and cross the bridge on the other side where authentic love abides. Upon this ground I stand, weaving the message of truth in my hand, the stars are guiding me so wait for me beyond the sea, and when you cross the bridge, the musical band will wait there and sing a special song for thee. Hungry eyes are crying out to thee.
