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

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Helmettes
Spring 1978 15 year old Joris Pelgrom, or as he was known Half Twee, was asked by No Fun record label owner Hansje Joustra and God’s Heart Attack singer Ronald van den Brink if he wanted to record a single. Lacking any musical talent Joris asked Pieter ‘Piep’ Kooijman, guitarist with God’s Heart Attack, to help with the music. Pieter came up with two great tunes and Joris wrote the words. ‘I don’t care what the people say’ about no more or less than what the title indicates and ‘Half Twee’ lyrics influenced by the Dada poetry that he was reading at the time.
