"Close My Eyes" lyrics

I've been thinking 'bout you way too long
Now I've finally got the chance to write this song
I wanted just to let you know
I don't think I need my freedom no more
I know it's gonna sound strange
But I want it to be known
That I don't need to own you
But I need you for my own

When I close my eyes
And I go to sleep
I see you smiling inside my dreams
Can't wait to close my eyes

When there doesn't seem an end in sight
I'll just fold my hands and pray
I'll be alright
I know I've been away too long
But love like this just can't be wrong
Please don't say you've found someone
And we'll be alright

If you could be inside me and see it through my eyes
You'd see my dreams without you are lonely black and white

When I close my eyes
And I go to sleep
I feel the love that's inside of me
When I close my eyes
And I go to sleep
I see you smiling inside my dreams
Can't wait to close my eyes

If you could be inside me and see it through my eyes
You'd see my dreams without you are lonely black and white

Whoa yeah
Oh no

If you could see my eyes
You'd see the black and white
You'd see in my dreams
You'd see the black and white
