lyrics

Close Your Eyes

Close your eyes
Don’t let the wide wide world get in
Just let this kiss begin
Close your eyes
Never mind that we’re not alone
It’s time
To give this wish a home
Close your eyes

Suddenly
Helplessly
Like falling through the sky
Keep holding on
It won’t be long
Certainly we’ll fly
So close your eyes

Close your eyes
There’s another world within
Can we go and look again
Close your eyes
I didn’t know
But must have dreamed that you would be
Everything I see
With these eyes
