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 here,
I tried to carry on to face the fact you're gone, but I need you,
so I close my eyes
Close my eyes
and I dream about you,
I close my eyes
I can almost feel you in my arms again
Mornings 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 eyes
When I close my eyes I'm a kid again,
I can think about the time we became best friends,
and we played in the park didn't have a care,
than 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 love would steal my heart,
now the pain that looks like you I just cannot wait,
but when I close my eyes it's a better place
No one really sees, you're watching over me,
and I hope you feel me watching over you,
and we can go to sleep,
I pray the lord will keep you in my dreams,
when I close my eyes
