lyrics

CLOSE YOUR EYES
(Strider/Burch)
Close Your Eyes
So you can see
Those who’ve lived before
Close Your Eyes
And History
Calls you back to explore

Close Your Eyes
And you’ll see
Children laughin’, and the mothers prayin’,
and the soldiers dyin’
And the preacher says no more lies___

Close Your Eyes
And you can see
The sights of days gone by
Close Your Eyes
And you can hear
The voices living inside

Close Your Eyes
And you’ll see
Children laughin’, and the mother’s prayin’,
and the soldier’s dyin’
And the preacher says no more lies___
Close Your Eyes

We gotta be about lovin’
Stop the fighting
Help each other
Look at the writing on the wall___

(Instrumental solo: piano - Jon Strider)

Close Your Eyes
And you’ll see
Children laughin’, and the mothers prayin’,
and the soldiers dyin’
And the preacher says no more lies___
Close Your Eyes
Close Your Eyes
Close Your Eyes___
