Eyes Wide Open Lyrics

The stars are shining as the moon is rising
stay where you are
as I close the curtains nothing is for certain
so stay where you are

Keep your eyes wide open
I know where both tired
I can't help but think
This might be the last time (x2)

Daylights approaching and my mind is coasting
out of control
These days without you memories start to cloud you
out of control

Keep your eyes wide open
I know where both tired
I can't help but think
This might be the last time (x2)

out of control (x2)

Keep your eyes wide open
I know where both tired
I can't help but think
This might be the last time (x4)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It's about a hookup. She's trying to cherish their possible final moments together.

The stars are shining as the moon is rising Stay where you are As I close the curtains, nothing is for certain So stay where you are (She's with her lover, and is contemplating the uncertainty of their relationship.)

Keep your eyes wide open I know we're both tired I can't help but think This might be the last time (Her lover is sleepy. He probably keeps his eyes closed when they make love. She's asking him to look in her eyes. She knows that this could possibly be their final encounter, and wants to enjoy it.)

Daylights approaching and my mind is coasting Out of control These days without you, memories start to cloud you Out of control (She's thinking about him. She misses him. Her imagination is running wild.)

Beautiful song. It really captivated me when I heard it in a local department store a few month sago.
