Baby Close Your Eyes
Céline Dion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sun is creeping down
Behind the hill
Everything is calm
Everything is still

So, baby, close your eyes
And rest your weary mind
Let me hold you close, I'll sing you this lullaby

Let your worries go
You fall asleep
Think of nothing more
Memories will keep
Your dreams will turn to gold
And you will wake and find
Then you'll hold a smile all day from this lullaby
Maybe somewhere in the silence
You may wake and you're all alone
Just call and I'll be there
Even when I'm gone
Each day will end
So I'll say goodnight
Until we meet again

Now, baby, close your eyes
And rest your weary mind




I'll let you know the joy you bring
Every time you hear me sing you this lullaby

Sun is creeping down Behind the hill
Everything is calm, Everything is still
So baby close your eyes
And rest your weary mind
Let me hold you close I'll sing you this lullaby
Let your worries go You fall asleep
Think of nothing more
Memories will keep Your dreams will turn to gold
And you will waken fine
Then you'll hold a smile all day from this lullaby

Maybe somewhere in the silence
You will wake and you're alone
Just call out and I'll be there
Even when I'm gone
Each day will end
So I'll say 'goodnight'
'Til we meet again
Now baby close your eyes
And rest your weary mind
I'll let you know the joy you bring
Everytime you hear me sing
You this lullaby
