Lyrics
CLOSE MY EYES
©2005 Williamson
Open space and deepest heart,
the roads we ride are long and dark;
Havens of our heaven marked
as tinder for the craven spark
and I close my eyes
Don't wanna see the icy skies
Don't wanna see the story go 'round in circles; it goes 'round in circles
Twist the light from life
And throw it on the ground
Rolling marble, blue and white
all those years of traveling light
and still not right;
Words that trickle down my face
seeing how you've been betrayed,
been disgraced
No way to save the face
of reason, love, and grace.
You cannot make the waves;
they cannot be replaced.
No warning bell; a net of lies,
hanging in the water's eye;
soul of saviours, ghostly blue,
in shafts of light, a grave of truth
and I close my eyes
Don't wanna see the rising tide
Promises come back to sting
I look down, losing everything
Tear myself away, and leave it on the ground.
