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 eyesChorus: I close my eyes
And I dream about you
I close my eyes
I can almost feel you in my arms again
Morning 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
I sing so many songs about you
I just close my eyesChorus (Repeat)(Break/Hook)
When I close my eyes I'm a kid again
I can think about the time we became just friends
Playing 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 lover'd 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 eyesChorus (Repeat)
