Close My Eyes Forever

[Verse 1]

Baby, I get so scared inside

And I don't really understand

Is it love that's on my mind

Or is it fantasy?

[Verse 2]

Heaven is in the palm of my hand

And it's waiting here for you

What am I supposed to do

With a childhood tragedy?

[Chorus]

If I close my eyes forever

Will it all remain unchanged?

If I close my eyes forever

Will it all remain the same?

[Verse 3]

Sometimes it's hard to hold on

So hard to hold on to my dreams

It isn't always what it seems

When you're face to face with me

[Verse 4]

You're like a dagger

You stick me in the heart

And taste the blood from my blade

And when we sleep, would you shelter me

In your warm and darkened grave?

[Chorus]

If I close my eyes forever

Will it all remain unchanged?

If I close my eyes forever

Will it all remain the same?

[Bridge]

Will you ever take me?

No, I just can't take the pain

Would you ever trust me?

No, I'll never feel the same

[Verse 5]

I know I've been so hard on you

I know I've told you lies

If I could have just one more wish

I'd wipe the cobwebs from my eyes

[Chorus]

If I close my eyes forever

Will it all remain unchanged?

If I close my eyes forever, oh

Will it all remain the same?

[Outro]

Close your eyes

Close your eyes

Close your eyes for me
