Eyes of the World

[Verse 1]
I took the long way down your block
To learn your name in passing
A market bag, a paper cup
A grin that kept on flashing
You said, "The day ain't done yet"
Like you had a secret map
I tucked that spark in my chest
And I kept on coming back

[Pre-Chorus]
If I move a little slower
I can catch the small lights
In the ones I used to overlook
Now they pull me in right

[Chorus]
I want to see it, want to see it
Through the eyes of the world
I want to feel it, want to feel it
Every boy, every girl
Keep me open, keep me open
Let me love where I land
I want to see it, want to see it
Through the eyes of the world

[Verse 2]
On a rainy train in Seoul
A kid shared his earbuds
In Lagos, on a corner stoop
A laugh outlived the hurt
From Lima to a laundromat
From Delhi to the dock
Every face held a window
And I learned to stop and knock

[Pre-Chorus]
If I move a little slower
I can catch the small lights
In the ones I used to overlook
Now they pull me in right

[Chorus]
I want to see it, want to see it
Through the eyes of the world
I want to feel it, want to feel it
Every boy, every girl
Keep me open, keep me open
Let me love where I land
I want to see it, want to see it
Through the eyes of the world

[Bridge]
Not to take, just to witness
Not to leave, just to stay
If your hope is a small flame
I'll carry it my way
And when mine gets low
You can borrow mine too
We can build one bright road
Out of all we've lived through

[Final Chorus]
I want to see it, want to see it
Through the eyes of the world
I want to feel it, want to feel it
Every boy, every girl
Keep me open, keep me open
Let me love where I land
I want to see it, want to see it
Through the eyes of the world
