Lyrics for Close My Eyes by Mariah Carey:
| | | Artist: | Mariah Carey |
| | Album: | Butterfly | | Track: | Close My Eyes | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 90 | | | | Lyrics: | I was a wayward child
With the weight of the world
That I held deep inside
Life was a
winding road
And I learned many things
Little ones shouldn't
know
Chorus
But I closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my
head to the sky
And though time's rolled by
Still I feel like that child
As I look at
the moon
Maybe I grew up
A little too soon
Funny how one can learn
To grow
numb to the madness
And block it away
I left the worse unsaid
Let it all
dissipate
And I try to forget
Chorus
(Bridge)
Nearing the
edge
Oblivious I almost
Fell right over
A part of me
Will never be quite
able
To feel stable
That woman-child falling inside
Was on the verge of
fading
Thankfully I
Woke up in time
Guardian angel I
Sail away on an
ocean
With you by my side
Orange clouds roll by
They burn into your image
And
you're still alive
(you're always alive)
