Bright lights, big city
Was quite extraordinary
The drive was pretty
I was in perfect company
The love of a lifetime
Since we were elementary friends
The one with the bright eyes...

Why can't I be optimistic?
I tried to find the logic logically
I had a dream and I could not shake it
I was standing up there naked

There's fear in the truth at hand
Frozen, I forgot to understand
The live keep living, growing older more into a man...
And I let her grow away from me

Love, love is not pretending.
Time, time was meant for mending
Memories into all is satisfactory
Healthy smiles fill the page the day we spent in miles
And I let her drive away from me

The one with the bright eyes
Laughed her way inside this music box
Stored away in the corner of my heart
And I let her get away from me
But I'll never take that day away from me

Luzes brilhantes, cidade grande
Foi completamente extraordinário
A motorista era bonita
Eu estava em perfeita companhia
O amor da sua vida,
Desde que éramos amigos elementares
A única com olhos brilhantes

Por que eu não posso ser otimista?
Eu tentei encontrar a lógica logicamente.
Eu tinha um sonho e não podia esquecê-lo.
Eu estava em pé lá pelado.

Há no medo a verdade em mãos, congelados, eu esqueci de entender
A vida continua vivendo; envelhecendo mais em um homem..
E eu a deixei crescer longe de mim.

Amor.. amor não está fingindo.
Tempo.. tempo foi feito para remendar*
Memórias são satisfatórias em todos os
Sorrisos saudáveis preenchem a página do dia que eu passei milhas.
E eu a deixei dirigir para longe de mim.

A única com olhos brilhantes
Rindo do seu caminho dentro dessa caixa de música;
Armazendo longe na esquina do meu coração.
E eu a deixei ficar longe de mim
Mas eu nunca vou levar aquele dia pra longe de mim.

Is it a kind of a dream
Floating out on the tide
Following the river of death downstream
Oh is it a dream?

There's a fog along the horizon
A strange glow in the sky
And nobody seems to know where you go,
And what does it mean?
Oh is it a dream?

Bright eyes, burning like fire
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly,
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes

Is it a kind of a shadow
Reaching into the night
Wandering over the hills unseen
Or is it a dream?

There's a high wind in the trees
A cold sound in the air
And nobody ever knows when you go
And where do you start?
Oh into the dark

Bright eyes, burning like fire
Bright eyes, how can we close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly,
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes

Bright eyes, burning like fire
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly,
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes

Is it a kind of dream,
Floating out on the tide,
Following the river of death downstream?
Oh, is it a dream?

There's a fog along the horizon,
A strange glow in the sky.
And nobody seems to know where you go.
And what does it mean?
Oh, is it a dream?

Bright eyes,
Burning like fire.
Bright eyes,
How can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes.

Is it a kind of shadow,
Reaching into the night,
Wandering over the hills unseen?
Or is it a dream?

There's a high wind in the trees,
A cold sound in the air.
And nobody ever knows when you go.
And where do you start,
Oh, into the dark?

Bright eyes,
Burning like fire.
Bright eyes,
How can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes.

Bright eyes,
Burning like fire.
Bright eyes,
How can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes.

Is it a kind of a dream
Floating out on the tide
Following the river of death downstream
Oh is it a dream?
There's a fog along the horizon
A strange glow in the sky
And nobody seems to know where it goes
And what does it mean?
Oh is it a dream?
Bright eyes, burning like fire
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly,
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes

Is it a kind of a shadow
Reaching into the night
Wandering over the hills unseen
Oh is it a dream?
There's a high wind in the trees
A cold sound in the air
And nobody ever knows where you go
And where do you start?
Oh into the dark

[Chorus X 2]

Fool, just another fool, just another
Fool, just another fool, just another
Fool, just another fool, just another
Fool, just another fool, just another

I've been waiting for signs of god
Create - enslave - behaved -
Everything is out of control

Watching you (x16)

Leave me alone, isolation bears hope
There's something else waiting, a promised destiny
Freezing me, I feel restless and low
These days full of sadness how joyfully changed into fear
My freakshow will start tonight
Don't miss the right time

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

Everything is out of control
Everything is out of control
In my future plans
Everything is out of control
Noone's left to hurt
Everything is out of control
Sorrow's gone away

Broken memories, walking upstairs, step by step
I see the whole world burning
How it burns!

Hey, mother stubborn
I really hate you
If you say yes, I will say no
Ashes to ashes
But dust won't be dust
If you go there
I will go back

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
Betrayed by sunrise
Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

Watching you (x16)

Hey, father stubborn
You're Yin and I'm Yang
I feel alone
Who really cares?
Born into ashes to lose all the games with a smiling face
With a smiling....

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
And dark dragons rise
Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

So I sit still in my room, today
Winter's here in summer season
Shall I say I was wrong
If I'm right ?
And farewell to my final hope

Bright lights, big city

Was quite extraordinary.

The drive was pretty.

I was in perfect company.

The love of a lifetime,

Since we were elementary friends;

The one with the bright eyes..

Why canÕt I be optimistic?

I tried to find the logic logically.

I had a dream and I could not shake it.

I was standing up there naked.

ThereÕs fear in the truth at hand, frozen I forgot to understand

The live keep living; growing older more into a man..

And I let her grow away from me.

Love.. love is not pretending.

Time.. time was meant for mending

Memories into all is satisfactory,

Healthy smiles fill the page the day we spent in miles.

And I let her drive away from me.

And as she left I heard her singing,

ohhhh let the sun shine in, and face it with a grin

because smilers, they never loose

and frowners they never win

oh, oh, oh, let the sun shine in

again again again again

face it with a grin

and open up your heart child

and let the sun shine in

The one with the bright eyes

Laughed her way inside this music box;

Stored away in the corner of my heart. And I let her get away from meÉ

But IÕll never take that day away from me.
