GLORIA ESTEFAN - Close My Eyes lyrics

rate me

If I could just close my eyes

See just what I wanted to see

It would be much easier to live this life

Thinking that it never really comes down to me

Sometimes I wanna close my eyes

So I can't see time while it's slipping away

We're all walking a very fine line

Until reality is somehow thrown in our face

Bury it deep and maybe you won't feel the pain

But you can't let it go

Down the line it will be back again

If we could all close our eyes

To all the things we know that are wrong

We could live selfishly protected lives

Not even think about what we could have done

Say it's not there and maybe it will go away

But the truth won't

Down the line it will be back again

And rather than exaime it

I think we maybe I should handle it

What good is it to close my eyes

Or tell myself another lie

Gotta get along somehow and sometimes the only way is to close my eyes

Somtimes I have to close my eyes

And let you think you can make a fool out of me

But I set myself up each time

By trusting you so openly

But that's the way I wanna bethat's the way I wanna be
