We Close Our Eyes

We close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
We close our eyes and dream
Another year has come and gone

When everybody is running in the big race
And having a good time
We might've cast a shadow
Who am I?

I looked death in the face last night
I saw him in a mirror when he simply smiled
He told me not to worry
He told me just to take my time

We close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
We close our eyes and dream
Another year has come and gone

We close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
We close our eyes and dream

And if you come to me
And if you touch my hand
I might just slip away
I might just disappear
Who am I?

And if you think I'm worth it
And if you think it's not too late
We might start falling
If we don't try too hard
We might start falling in love

We close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
We close our eyes and dream
Another year has come and gone

We close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
We close our eyes and dream

We're on the healing path
We're on a roller coaster ride
That could never turn back

And if you love me
And if you really try
To make the seconds count
Then we could close our eyes

Close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
Close our eyes
Another year has come and gone

We close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
We close our eyes and dream
Another year has come and gone

Close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
Close our eyes and dream
Close our eyes
And the world has turned around again
