Alain Souchon - Dont Close Your Eyes Lyrics

They're putting up another five-star hotel

just where the ocean waves meet the golden sand
everybody's waiting for that special swell
some cry, some laugh and some it's hard to tell

On every shore they're still asking for justice
along every coast they're still wishin' for peace
but in every street they're still fightin' for freedom

So don't close your eyes - to these changing times
and say it's all right - just speak your mind
build your dreams high - and hold on tight (chorus)
and say it's all right - say it's all right.

Soul surfing on the dirty crest of urgency
everyone knows the ride it ain't toll-free
the race is on, and it's just sink or swim
maybe it's when you lose that you really win
