"When I Close My Eyes"


When I close my eyes
I can almost taste you
I canґt face you
Youґre still too strong
And itґs no surprise
I canґt erase you
I tried to replace you
But it all went wrong
ґCause seeds donґt crawl off the mountains
And they donґt fall
fall from the tree
And they donґt drop
not when youґre counting
Or maybe thatґs my sweet philosophy
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Mmm ...

When I close my eyes
I dream about you
Tell me how to
Tell me how not to
Grab on to something new
I looked my fate past through
But instead I keep on holding on
I keep holding on
When I close my eyes
I think about you
I just canґt let you go
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
