Jackson Browne’s “Doctor My Eyes” appears on his 1972 debut album, Saturate Before Using.

The song is a first person monologue about a world-weary man who’s seen too much and doesn’t want the pain anymore.
Doctor My Eyes Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of fears without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hiding
You must help me if you can
[Chorus]
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long?
[Verse 2]
'Cause I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled
I've been waiting to awaken from these dreams
People go just where they will
I never noticed them until I got this feeling
That it's later than it seems
[Chorus]
Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what you see
I hear their cries
Just say if it's too late for me
[Chorus]
Doctor, my eyes
Cannot see the sky
Is this the prize
For having learned how not to cry?
