Close My Eyes Lyrics


I live my days with the nights that we spent, all the love we shared
I put my heart on the side for a while knowing you're not there
I tried to carry on, to face the fact you're gone
But I need you, so I close my eyes
Close my eyes
And I dream about you
I close my eyes
I can almost feel you in my arms again
Mornings remind me of showers and talks in the soft sunlight
Evenings of passion and cries of joy hold your memory tight
You've been away so long and I sing so many songs about you
I just close my eyes
Close my eyes
And I dream about you
I close my eyes
I can almost feel you in my arms again
When I close my eyes I'm a kid again
I can think about the time we became best friends

And we played in the park didn't have a care
Then you smiled at me and I knew right there
I would hold your hand it would be the start
Of a promise that no other love would steal my heart
Now the pain of losing you I just can't erase
But when I close my eyes it's a better place
No one really sees you watching over me
And I hope you feel me watching over you
And when you go to sleep I pray the Lord to keep
You in my dreams when I close my eyes
Close my eyes
And I dream about you
I close my eyes
I can almost feel you in my arms again
Close my eyes
And I dream about you
I close my eyes
I can almost feel you in my arms again
