Close Your Eyes
King Curtis and His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Music play
something dreamy for dancing
while we're here romancing
It's love's holiday
And Love will be our guide

Close your Eyes
When you open them dear
I'll be right hear by your side
So

Close your eyes
rest your head on my shoulder and sleep
Close your eyes
And I will close mine

Close your eyes
Let's pretend that we're both counting sheep
Close your eyes
This is divine

Music play
something dreamy for dancing
while were here romancing
It's love's holiday
And Love will be our guide

Close your Eyes
When you open them dear




I'll be near by your side
So won't you close your eyes

The way you talk about people being "ugly" simply because they've aged and using a photo of a random fat lady for clout, I'd never, ever join in on being a member. All this just shows your true colors.
