we close our eyes we close our eyes and dream and the world has turned around again oh when everybody is running in the big race and havin a good time who am i to cast a shadow who am i i looked death in the face last night i saw him in a mirror and i 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 that 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 you 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 that 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 a healing path we re on a roller coaster ride that can never turn back and if you love me and if you really try we ll make the seconds count and we can close our eyes we close our eyes and the world has turned around again we close our eyes we close our eyes and the world has turned around again we close our eyes and dream
