Through My Eyes

This song: Through My Eyes - sung by Thanh Bui (Music by Fiona Johnson & Lyrics written by Valerie Foley) I came across on the Concert 4 Autism facebook page and loved it so much I just had to share.
I adore the lyrics:
'I'm dreaming of my future
And it's brighter than you know
I'll get there on a different road
When I am ready to go'

it fits Felicity's journey with her Son-Rise Program perfectly!!



See the world through my eyes
It changes shape and it changes size
It's not quite the world you see.
If you could find a way
To look around inside my mind
Maybe you would understand me

(chorus)
'Coz I'm not blind, but I can't always see
I'm not deaf, but things can sound strange to me
I'm not trapped but it's hard to feel free
Imagine what it's like to be me
Imagine what it's like to be me

It's hard for me to try
To think things through or talk like you
Everything can be a blur sometimes
But if you walk along beside me
Hold my hand and guide me
Together, any mountain we can climb

(chorus)
'Coz I'm not blind, but I can't always see
I'm not deaf, but things can sound strange to me
I'm not trapped but it's hard to feel free
Imagine what it's like to be me
Imagine what it's like to be me

I'm dreaming of my future
And it's brighter than you know
I'll get there on a different road
When I am ready to go

I don't need pitty
I don't need tears
I just need someone to help me understand my fears
Show me you believe in me
Let me know that I'm ok
Help me feel safe in the world and I will find my way

'Coz I'm not blind, but I can't always see
I'm not deaf, but things can sound strange to me
I'm not trapped but it's hard to feel free
Imagine what it's like to be me
Imagine what it's like.....

Imagine seeing the world through my eyes.
