Lyrics
You Can Close Your Eyes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well the Sun is surely
Sinking down
But the Moon is slowly rising
So this old world
Must still be spinning around
And I still love you
So close your eyes
You can close your eyes
It's all right
I don't know no love songs
And I can't sing the blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song
When I'm gone
It won't be long
Before another day
We're gonna have a good time
No one's gonna
Take that time away
You can stay as long as you like
So close your eyes
You can close your eyes
It's all right
I don't know no love songs
And I can't sing the blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song
When I'm gone
