Jacob Collier - You Can Close Your Eyes Lyrics

Jacob Collier Lyrics

"You Can Close Your Eyes"
(originally by James Taylor)

Well, the sun is slowly sinkin' down
And the moon is slowly risin'
So this old world must still be spinnin' 'round
And I still love you

So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it's alright
I don't know no love songs
I can't sing the blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song when I'm gone

Well it won't be long before another day
We're gonna have a good time (good time)
And no one's gonna take that time away
You can stay as long as you like

So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it's alright
I don't know no love songs
I can't sing the blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song when I'm gone (yeah)

So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it's alright
I don't know no love songs
I can't sing the blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song when I'm gone
