Love with Eyes Open

🎼 Song Lyrics

Mmm… I’ve walked through gardens where roses… hide the thorns,
Felt the honey drip in the words… but tasted the storm.
They called it love, but baby… it was a leash in disguise,
I learned my yes has to dance with my why.

Love… with eyes open,
Hands still givin’, truth still spoken.
No to the poison, yes to the light,
My heart is my kingdom… my justice, my right.

Breathe deep… green light spilling in my chest,
Every “no” I whisper is a “yes” to my best.
I forgive… but I guard, I’m soft but I’m steel,
This is how an open heart… learns how to heal.

I’m not closing my heart, no, I’m just guarding the door
‘Cause love without wisdom can wound you more
Every “yes” I give must be pure, must be right
I’ll keep my flame steady, burning clear in the night

Love with eyes open, hands that still give
Truth in my speaking, the way I must live
No to the poison, yes to the light
My heart is my kingdom, my justice, my right

Whispers of Jezebel sweet in the air
Promise of heaven but the truth’s not there
I’ve seen the cost of letting lies take root
So I plant my soul in the soil of truth

I’m not closing my heart, no, I’m just guarding the door
‘Cause love without wisdom can wound you more
Every “yes” I give must be pure, must be right
I’ll keep my flame steady, burning clear in the night

Love with eyes open, hands that still give
Truth in my speaking, the way I must live
No to the poison, yes to the light
My heart is my kingdom, my justice, my right

Breathe in the green light, feel it rise through the sky
Anchor my spirit, let the falsehoods die
Forgive with courage, but I still stand tall
I’m love unshaken, I will not fall

Love with eyes open, hands that still give
Truth in my speaking, the way I must live
No to the poison, yes to the light
My heart is my kingdom, my justice, my right

(Ohhh…) My kingdom, my right
(Ohhh…) Love with eyes open tonight
