When You Close Your Eyes

(Carly Simon/Billy Mernit)

When you close your eyes do you see

White lorelei, she's a dream

She's not half as magic as she seems

But she's so much fun to be with

When you close your eyes do you see

Places that you've never seen

Yet you've been there

You've been walking on the edges of a dream

And you're so much fun to be with

Big surprise, you've been informed you're not asleep

Hard as you try you were never really meant to weep

When you close your door with a sign

"Do not disturb", are you disturbed to find

That it's just as magic as it feels

And you're so much fun to be with
