"Sometimes the love that you need is standing right in front of your eyes"

lyrics

I opened my eyes
and saw the world
with a new sense of desperation
She turned out the light
and tried not to cry
when she sensed my humiliation
I didn't love her
She didn't mind

We were looking for love out of lonliness
We were looking for love all the time
We were looking for love through
the eyes of the young
Hoping that fate would be kind
When you're looking for love
sometimes love can be blind

I left for a while
in search of the answers
to questions that didn't matter
She opened her eyes
and found her a new love
who knew how to treat her better
I came back to love her
She left me behind

We were looking for love out of lonliness
We were looking for love all the time
We were looking for love through
the eyes of the young
Hoping that fate would be kind
When you're looking for love
sometimes love can be blind

Sometimes the love that you need
is just standing right in front of your eyes
I was too young to believe
and too late to realize

I opened my eyes
and saw the world with a new sense of inspiration
She stayed in my mind
giving me hope long after our loves duration
I know there'll be others
and I'll think of the times

We were looking for love out of lonliness
We were looking for love all the time
We were looking for love through
the eyes of the young
Hoping that fate would be kind
When you're looking for love
sometimes love can be blind

Phil Dutra Austin, Texas

Phil Dutra grew up loving AM Pop music in New York City. But as he traveled the U.S. and soaked up Soul, Country, Folk and Southern Rock, his writing reached new levels.

Now, he takes all these influences, his love of Melodic songs, filled with catchy hooks and heartfelt lyrics and pours these elements into his emotional Retro-Pop sound!

His entire heart is in every note! ... more
