When I Close My Eyes
Kenny Chesney · Original Album Classics [2010]
And even though it may be too late
I want you to know I still love you so
Every car I meet looks like your car
Every movie I see you play the leading part,
You're on my mind can't leave you behind.
Chorus:
When I close my eyes you're all I see
In the dark of night you're in my dreams
Throughout the day you're easy to find
You're always there when I close my eyes.
In my mind I know you're far away
But here in my heart nothing has changed
I'm still holding you like I used to
On a busy street in a crowded room
Wherever I go it's just me and you
Together again, girl it never ends.
Chorus:
When I close my eyes you're all I see
In the dark of night you're in my dreams
Throughout the day you're easy to find
You're always there when I close my eyes.
You're always there when I close my eyes...
