You've been searching the world to find true love
Looking in all the wrong places
When all the time you've been blind to love
It's plain as a nose on your faces
It's here, it's now
Open your eyes and see it
Right here, right now
Open your eyes to love
You've been down on yourself
Thinking something's wrong
Wonder why love's never found you
Don't you know it's been right here all along
If only you look around you
It's here, it's now
Open your eyes and see it
Right here, right now
Open your eyes to love
Love has been right by your side
So close that you couldn't see
If love could speak
He will shout to the sky
I've always been here
I always will be
I'm here, I'm now
Open your eyes and see it
Right here, right now
Open your eyes to love
Open your eyes to love
Open your heart to love
