UB40 lyrics : "Your Eyes Were Open"

Oh doctor help me please
I'm dying, crippled with disease
My Body's aching limb to limb

My bones are glowing through my skin
When I look up into black skies
Mushrooms grow before my eyes

Doctor save me if you can
I'm a desperate man
[Repeat]


As he lay thinking he was dead
A burning pain short through his head

He looked into those tired old eyes
Heard forty years of anguished cries
And this doctor said


Your eyes were open
But you shut them with your mouth

You always heard
But you weren't doing the screaming
You'd only just woken

But Already, you'd forgotten,
What you were dreaming


Such a sad case
The failure of a human race
