David Archuleta's winners single: American Idol 2008

Mother can you hear me

for the first time
I see
Born in two eyes
not by my own decision
take me away
from a life with no vision
Step down
from the subway
climb the staircase
to the street
Spinning in circles
And holding on tight
to this moment forever
if only tonight

And I wanna be
in this moment
no one can take it from me
And I wanna stay
in this moment
no one can take it away from me

Driving
through the city
for the first time
you and me
staring through windows
at my own reflection
how can a window
encompass perfection
now that I know
what it's like to be living
this beautiful world
will never stop giving
I can't return
to a life with no vision
born in two eyes
not my own decision

Watching the world
through the eyes of a child
sitting alone in my room
wishing that someone would take me away some day
Give me a chance and I'll show you whats real
Open your eyes and you'll see
That I'm stuck in a moment
and no one can take it from me
