Lyrics for Song: Close My Eyes 
Lyrics for Album: Into The Light
  
               
  37348>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 slipping away.
 Where 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 is it won't
 Down the line it will be back again.
  And rather than examine it
 I think I better handle it
 What good is it to close my eyes
 Or tell myself another lie
 Gotta get along somehow and sometimes the only way
 It's to close my eyes
  Sometimes 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 yeah
 That's the way I wanna be, that's the way I wanna be...
