"When You Close Your Eyes" lyrics

"When You Close Your Eyes"
(originally by Carly Simon)

When you close your eyes do you see
White Lorelei? She's a dream
She's not half as magic as she seems
But she's so much fun to be with

When you close your eyes do you see places that you've never seen?
Yet you've been there
You've been walking on the edges of a dream
And you're so much fun to be with

Big surprise, you've been informed that you're not asleep
Hard as you try, you were never really meant to weep

When you close your door with a sign
Do not disturb, you must be disturbed to find
That it's just as magic as it seems
And you're so much fun to be with


Writer(s): Carly E. Simon, Billy Mernit
