Lyrics

[Intro]

We close our eyes (Close our eyes)

We close our eyes and dream

And the world has turned around again

Oh

[Verse 1]

When everybody's running in the big race

And havin' a good time, who am I to cast a shadow?

Who am I? I looked death in the face last night

I saw him in a mirror and I simply smiled

He told me not to worry, he told me just to take my time

[Chorus]

We close our eyes (Close our eyes)

And the world has turned around again

We close our eyes and dream (Close our eyes)

That another year has come and gone

We close our eyes (Close our eyes)

And the world has turned around again

We close our eyes and dream (Close our eyes)

[Verse 2]

And if you come to me and if you touch my hand

I might just slip away, I might just disappear

Who am I? And if you think I'm worth it

And if you think it's not too late, we might start falling

If we don't try too hard, we might start falling in love

[Chorus]

We close our eyes (Close our eyes)

And the world has turned around again

We close our eyes and dream (Close our eyes)

That another year has come and gone

We close our eyes (Close our eyes)

And the world has turned around again

We close our eyes and dream (Close our eyes)

[Instrumental]

We're on a healing path

We're on a roller coaster ride that can never turn back

And if you love me, and if you really try

We'll make the seconds count and we can close our eyes

[Instrumental]

We close our eyes (Close our eyes)

And the world has turned around again

We close our eyes (Close our eyes)

We close our eyes (Close our eyes)

And the world has turned around again

We close our eyes and dream (Close our eyes)
