Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Close your eyes, close your eyes
Breathe the air out there
We are free, we can be wide open
[Verse 2]
For you opened my eyes
To the beauty I see
We will pray, we will stay wide open
[Verse 3]
Don't analyse, don't analyse
Don't go that way, don't live that way
That would paralyze your evolution
Don't analyse, don't analyse
Don't go that way, don't live that way
That would paralyze your evolution
[Verse 4]
La-ah-ah, this greatest moment
La-ah-ah, this greatest day
La-ah-ah, the greatest love of them all
La-ah-ah, this greatest moment
La-ah-ah, this greatest day
La-ah-ah, the greatest love of them all
[Verse 5]
Close your eyes, close your eyes
Breathe the air out there
Fantasize, fantasize we are open
[Verse 6]
For you opened my eyes
To the beauty I see
We will pray, we will stay together
[Verse 7]
La-ah-ah, this greatest moment
La-ah-ah, this greatest day
La-ah-ah, the greatest love of them all
La-ah-ah, this greatest moment
La-ah-ah, this greatest day
La-ah-ah, the greatest love of them all
[Verse 8]
La-ah-ah, la la-ah la-da
La-ah-ah, la la-ah-ah
La-ah-ah, la la da da da da da-ah
