CLOSE YOUR EYES

Music by Kenneth Holmström

Lyrics by Jonas Lundberg

 

In the stillness

preceding the dawn

my young daughter´s calling from her room

And by her bedside

I ask what is wrong

and she wonders if I know the kind of song

 

The kind of song that

carries away

some things I might have done that weren´t okay

A song that makes

the thoughts in my head

to think a little kind of me instead

 

Close your eyes

In a while

Dreams will come

Dreams will come

 

She is drowsy

and holding my hand

but asking me to sing it once again

´Cause she wonders

what they will say

and if her friends are gonna let her play

 

Close your eyes...

 

And there was a young girl

determined to see

if she could live life perfectly

Just to find out

to keep to her goal

she could do nothing at all

 

Close your eyes...

 

Close your eyes

and you will find

that what´s been done

is left behind
