lyrics

EVERYTIME I CLOSE MY EYES
Lay your head on the pillow next to me
I hope you know that you mean so much to me
Up and down baby it is ten to three
In a while spy your smile sing a melody
Counting sheep pray you sleep
Won’t you close your big blue eyes and
It’s ok drift away oh now this time
I can’t sleep tonight

Everytime I close my eyes I hear you
Everytime I close my eyes I hear you

Wake to a noise it’s a laugh just meant for me
Open my eyes and you smile right back at me
Up and down you’ve been dying to get free
Whistle high whistle low sing a melody
In a while crocodile
I can see your big blue eyes and
It ok play away I only hope that
I can sleep tonight

Everytime I close my eyes I hear you
Everytime I close my eyes I hear you

Astronauts and shooting stars
With polar bears
And men from Mars
Pirate ships and stickle bricks
Will see you fine till morning time

Everytime I close my eyes I hear you
Everytime I close my eyes I hear you
Everytime I close my eyes I hear you
Everytime I close my eyes I hear you
