[Close My Eyes
And
Keep Them Shut]
The winds blow, swirling winds, nothing that can keep it still
Look up at the sky with nothing in mind, nothing in sight
Shimmering stars that hold all their might in one little soul tonight
Falling and falling away from the sky only asking themselves why
Turn and see that smile, that smile you gleam at me
Close my eyes and keep them shut, theirs no way this is reality
Wish my wish on that star, and kiss me good night
You will not return to this place to just be my knight
Dreams of pure bliss, I can't escape, I don't want to escape
Can I please stay here by your side, If I may
Fortunate believer that knows nothing is true, all make believe
Live out this fairy tell every single night and hope it will never fall away
Because these dreams of you and me, I never want them to go away
Keep my eyes shut, and oh please, don't wake me up
Don't wake me up from my only escape I have got
Never by my side never, never caring, never there
Have mercy and don't take me away from this, this place where we can still kiss
You left me, you abandoned me, you'll never come back
Fall down from grace, all it took was one night to escape
Promise me one day that we will someday meet again
Left me in the dust, for one little pill of sin
Heart of gold, eyes of pure, Princess of Light
Coldness of love, tears of blood, Prince of Night
Kiss me one more time to just soothe the pain before I must go
The sun is raising, the night is falling, I don't want to go
Grab me tightly and never let go, just kiss me before I must leave
Sun is almost all up high, a few more seconds to spare in the air
Grab my arm, never let go, because now I must go
Singing birds with disappear, a sunrise complete
Real life, not my fairy tale, that's where I live my life
In my life, you had left me long time ago just to leave your worries behind
One pill of sin, you had no fear, felt like there was no sin
Still you took it knowing where'd you go, knowing you leave me alone
Lightness gleaming on the eyelids, slowly opening them sadly
Wanting to keep them shut, I know I can't today, tomorrow, never
All a dream of bliss, ones without a kiss
I'll join you someday, if you wish, please let me dear
To kiss you, to hug you, to care, that's all I want to have to bare
Help me close my eyes shut, keep them shut for all eternity
I want to be with you forever, but for this moment I know I can't, never
