Clean my eyes
Clean my eyes
For I oft weep
The things I see around-
The misery and gloom on which I brood
tears me up.
Clean my eyes
For the starving children
The ones they show no more on television
Clean my eyes
For men have gone astray
I am lost in the crowd
I am alone - I am astray
Clean my eyes, clean my eyes
For the sorrow on which I brood
Oft tears me up
For I oft weep
The things I see around-
The misery and gloom on which I brood
tears me up.
Clean my eyes
For the starving children
The ones they show no more on television
Clean my eyes
For men have gone astray
I am lost in the crowd
I am alone - I am astray
Clean my eyes, clean my eyes
For the sorrow on which I brood
Oft tears me up
