lyrics

Eyes of Your Soul

A preacher I knew of was blind for years
But it seems that his prayers didn't fall on deaf ears
And now there are hundreds who testify
That he sees what they're doing with his single glass eye

You say to yourself that it just can't be so
Yet how can you know all there is to know?
Whatever the kind of beliefs you may hold
What is it you see with the eyes of your soul?

Chorus

Eyes of your soul never know when they'll open
Eyes of your soul taking you by surprise
Seeing as deep as the floor of the ocean
Showing you more than you'd ever surmise

Many a loved one is seen in a dream
Or suddenly standing there, strange as it seems
Come from afar to be by your side
Present in spirit, although they have died

Some see holy figures in dust upon glass
Or in scratches on stones or in patches of grass
And those who find healing or help in those signs
Don't care if you say it was all in their minds

Since time out of mind, and some do it still,
You traveled alone into desert or hills
For a vision that saw through the world of disguise
A gift from the spirits, to make you more wise

A light has been seen by some at death's door
Who are sent back by others who had gone on before
A trick of the eye, say the men of letters
But those who return say they're changed forever

Angel Dean and Sue Garner grew up in the south about a hundred miles apart as the crow flies. They met in 1981, in New York City. They’ve played in numerous groups, together and separately. In 2003, they recorded an album for Diesel Only called Pot Liquor. Little did they know that their second album would take a dog’s age to see the light, but at long last Gardeania has flowered.
