Close My Eyes
I was wayward child
With the weight of the
World that I held deep inside
Life was a winding road
And I learned many things
Little ones shouldnt know
But I closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my head to the sky
And though times rolled by
Still I feel like that child
As I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon
La la la da da
La la la da da da da
La la la da da
Da da da da
La la la da da
La la la da da da da

Funny how one can learn
To grow numb to the madness
And block it away block it away
I left the worst unsaid
Let it all dissipate and I try to forget
But I closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my head to the sky
And though times rolled by
Still feel like that
Child as I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon
La la la da da
La la la da da da da
La la la da da
Da da da da
La la la da da
La la la da da da da

Nearing the edge nearing the edge
Oblivious I almost oblivious
Fell right over
A part of me a part of me
Will never be quite able will never be
To feel stable will never be
That woman-child falling inside
That woman-child
Was on the verge of fading I
Thankfully I thankfully I
Woke up in time woke up in time time time
Guardian angel I
Sail away on an ocean
With you by my side
Orange clouds rollby
They burn into your image
And youre still alive
But I closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my head to the sky
And though times rolls by
Still feel like that child
As I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon
