When my mind, is filled with troubles,
and I find I'm fallen', all the way,
all the way, down to the bottom,
I know you’re there, to pick me up,
Cause you’re my light, shinnin' in the darkness,
you’re my lover, you’re my friend,
and I sure could use some consolation,
won't you pick me up, start over again,
(chorus) Just close your eyes, just close your eyes,
I'd give you anything to make you realize,
ya been lookin' so hard for somethin',
and now your goin' blind,
baby, just close your eyes.
Ya don't need to worry, what your mama thinks,
and it don't matter, what your daddy'll do,
deep in your heart, lies the strength you need,
yeah the love you seek, is inside of you.
(chorus)
You are the reason, you are the question,
you are the answer, you are the truth,
you are the only thing that ever really mattered,
no it don't matter, if ya win or lose.
(chorus)
Baby, just close your eyes.
baby, just close your eyes.
