Her little eyes are sleeping
It's the middle of the night
But little eyes know
Even when they're closed
They don't need a night light
To know when something's missing
To know when you're not listening
So listen to them little eyes tonight
Everything is magnified
It all looks big to little eyes
Little eyes need lots of love
'Cause little eyes see so much
Around them that's confusing
And you're one of the few things
Those little eyes can count on tonight.
Little eyes grow big too soon
Picking fights with the man in the moon
From faltering first steps in high-top shoes
Those little eyes keep looking back at you
Her little eyes are sleeping
It's the middle of the night
But little eyes know
Even when they're closed
They don't need a night light
To know when something's missing
To know when you're not listening
So listen to them little eyes tonight
Her little eyes are sleeping
It's the middle of the night
