Written for my dear friend, Sebastian.

lyrics

Your lover’s gone and you’re moving on
Your heart knows not where to go
You think you’ll try to uproot your life
So you pack your bags and hit the road
Oh have you found someone to make you satisfied?
Oh are you so dependent upon another’s life?
Oh and I’m saying goodbye as a friend
Knowing that you’ll soon be back again

And love will find you if you open your eyes
So why don’t you open your eyes?

Now your runner’s luck is wearing out
You find your heart moving up your sleeve
Soon to be back where it was
Before arriving at this life you lead
And oh have you ever felt more satisfied?
Oh have you ever been happier in your life?
And I love hearing about your travels, my friend
Knowing that you’ll soon be back again

And love will find you if you open your eyes
So why don’t you open your eyes?

Now I hear the troops are coming home
Maybe you could get a ride with them?
If money’s the issue, I can front the cash
As long as you can pay it back again
And oh are you done being satisfied?
For I could really use you back in my life
Oh and I’d love to see you again, my friend
And I’m just hoping that you’ll soon be back again

And love will find you if you open your eyes
So why don’t you open your eyes?
