Close Your Eyes

[ VERSE 1 ]

Close your eyes my darling

Let your mind be quiet as the night.

And if you need a place to hide

Know that I’m right here.

Lay your head here for a while.

 

[ VERSE 2 ]

You possess the strength to fight all your battles

Like a fire that’s burning bright.

But if you grow weary

And need shelter for the night.

Lay your head here by my side.

 

[ CHORUS ]

Let me be your shoulder to cry on

Let me be the arms that hold you tight.

 

[ VERSE 3 ]

When the winds are raging on and the blows keep on coming

And you feel like you’ve lost the fight.

In the eye of the storm

That’s where you’ll find me

You can rest here if you like.

 

[ CHORUS ]

Let me be your shoulder to cry on.

Let me be the arms that hold you tight.

Let me be your shoulder to cry on.

 

[ BRIDGE ]

[ VERSE 4 ]

Open your eyes my darling.

Go and live your life outright.

And if you need to take it slow

Stay with me for a while.

I won’t let go until you smile.
