Doctor My Eyes Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise
To leave them open for so long?

[Verse 2]
Well, I have wandered through this world
As each moment has unfurled
I've been waiting to awaken from these dreams
People go just where they will
I never noticed them until I got this feeling
That it's later than it seems

[Chorus]
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries
Just say if it's too late for me
[Organ and guitar solos]

[Chorus]
Doctor, my eyes
Cannot see the sky
Is this the price
For having learned how not to cry?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
