We Close Our Eyes

We close our eyes, we close our eyes We close our eyes and dream And the world has turned around again

When everybody is running in the big race And having a good time Who am I to cast a shadow? Who am I?

I looked Death in the face last night I saw him in a mirror And he simply smiled He told me not to worry He told me just to take my time

We close our eyes, we close our eyes And the world has turned around again We close our eyes and dream And another year has come and gone We close our eyes, we close our eyes And the world has turned around again We close our eyes and dream

And if you come to me And if you touch my hand I might just slip away I might just disappear—who am I

And if you think I'm worth it And if you think it's not too late We might start falling If we don't try too hard We might start falling in love

We close our eyes, we close our eyes And the world has turned around again We close our eyes and dream And another year has come and gone We close our eyes, we close our eyes And the world has turned around again We close our eyes and dream

We're on a healing path We're on a rollercoaster ride That can never turn back And if you love me And if you really try To make the seconds count Then we can close our eyes

We close our eyes, we close our eyes And the world has turned around again We close our eyes and dream And another year has come and gone We close our eyes, we close our eyes And the world has turned around again We close our eyes and dream...
