Close My Eyes

Loretta Lynn · You're Lookin' at Country [1971]

I know he knows I'm bad

So why don't he close my eyes

'Cause as long as they stay open

I can see where my heart lies.



It's burried at his beat

And when he steps on it it cries

Everybody knows I'm bad

So why don't they close my eyes.



My blue eyes are open wide

and I can see her take my place

I know still I can feel the dirt

He's throwin' in my face.



He is every breath I breathe

So how could I survive

Everybody knows I'm bad

So why don't they close my eyes.

My blue eyes are open wide

and I can see her take my place

I know still I can feel the dirt

He's throwin' in my face.



He is every breath I breathe

So how could I survive

Everybody knows I'm bad

So why don't they close my eyes...
