Open Your Eyes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A salon chair, a little banter and a dare She called me Big Head Galoot without a care Older, wiser, with a beauty that could stun I was shaken, she was taken by no one Something sparked beneath those green eyes shining bright [Chorus] I love my baby, and my baby loves me Through every storm, she's my shelter, my peace She's my rock, my ride or die, my answered prayer A grace so deep, only heaven put her there [Verse 2] Years went rolling, then one late and restless night I asked permission for a kiss, she held on tight I was broken, carrying demons I couldn't name But Erin never flinched, she loved me through the flame She took my darkness, turned it slowly into dawn [Chorus] I love my baby, and my baby loves me Through every storm, she's my shelter, my peace She's my rock, my ride or die, my answered prayer A grace so deep, only heaven put her there [Bridge] She gives her whole heart to everyone she knows Her family, her strays, wherever kindness goes Sacrificing more than she would ever say Lord, let me love her louder every single day [Verse 3] At the Cottage by the Sea, the windows wide I whispered open up your eyes, waves met the tide The sunrise crashed like God was painting just for us In Paia streets and Mama's Fish House, full of trust Now coffee on the patio, the dogs at our feet I pull her up and we start dancing to our own heartbeat [Chorus] I love my baby, and my baby loves me Through every trial, Erin stands right next to me She's my rock, my ride or die, my answered prayer To look in those green eyes is heaven standing there [Outro] I never knew that love could feel this way But Erin, you're my forever, every day
