You can't keep me holding on I've given you some time I can't make you come along If you don't share your mind Every time you close your eyes I know you feel the same Everything you try to fight Is drowning in the rain What does it take to open your eyes? Don't let it fade You've got to let the sun shine Through the rain Open your eyes Don't let me wait You've got to let the sun shine Through the rain Tell me why you turn away Whenever I believe Finally you've come to say I'm everything you need Every time you close your eyes I know you feel the same Everything you try to fight Is drowning in the rain What does it take to open your eyes? Don't let it fade You've got to let the sun shine Through the rain Open your eyes Don't let me wait You've got to let the sun shine Through the rain I'm not asking of you To give yourself away I just want you to Hear the words I say It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time It's only a matter of time What does it take to open your eyes? Don't let it fade You've got to let the sun shine Through the rain Open your eyes Don't let me wait You've got to let the sun shine Through the rain
