[Verse 1]
When grace has abandoned and forgotten you
And you see through everything you thought was true
The fruit is rotten and the crops have all died. There’s no dream for you to dream anymore
And you’ve been knocking on yesterday’s door
But there’s no answer, you receive no reply
[Chorus]
But you can see with those eyes
And can hear with those ears
And you can speak with that tongue
The truth looks so far away
But now it’s clear
[Verse 2]
Double talk, why you lyin'?
The truth has come, set you on fire
The lies well spoken, the truth is well hid
Say hello, hello to a new beginning
Say goodbye to what now is ending
The pathway you walked in is very clear
[Chorus]
But you can see with those eyes
And can hear with those ears
And you can speak with that tongue
The truth looks so far away
But now it’s clear
[Verse 3]
So hooray, hooray for tomorrow, better place to forget all your sorrow. The trumpets are blowing and the music is clear
[Chorus]
But you can see with those eyes
And can hear with those ears
And you can speak with that tongue
The truth looks so far away
But now it’s clear
But you can see with those eyes
And can hear with those ears
And you can speak with that tongue
The truth looks so far away
But now it’s clear
