Close My Eyes
Lily and the Pearl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hey
Baby, baby
I have to say
That there's something you should know
When I'm standing out
In my underwear
But I still feel sexy
When you undress me
And whisper in my ear
Come over here
Come over here
Let's spice it up
You can dress me up
I'll be anyone you like
Got my leathers on
Yeah let's get it on
Come on ride me like a bike
I'll be Beyoncรฉ
Baby say my name
Tonight yeah I'm a hova
Baby come over
Baby come over
Close your eyes
Baby take off your shirt
I'm going to just hit the lights
Come on let me get to work
I'm going to hypnotise you
Then I'm going to yank your chain
And we can do it again
All over again
Driving your sedan
Up to my minivan
I see you in my mirror
Ain't no other chick
Going to cut my shit
You know I'd have to kill her
You know how to use it
I'm about to lose it
You blow my fucking mind
Park it right up behind
Park it right up behind
Close your eyes
Baby take off your shirt
I'm going to just hit the lights
Come on let me get to work
I'm going to hypnotise you
Then I'm going to yank your chain
And we can do it again
All over again
Where did you learn to do the things you do?
You're everything
You're all my dreams come true
You know your way around like no one else
You're right there
Like you care
You're so close
I'm nearly there
Oh yeah!
Come on now baby, yeah
Come on now baby, yeah
Come on now baby, yeah
Come on baby, right there, come on baby now yeah, come on now baby oh yeah
Come on baby, right there, come on baby right there
Close your eyes
Baby take off your shirt
I'm going to just hit the lights
Come on let me get to work
I'm going to hypnotise you
Then I'm going to yank your chain
And we can do it again
All over again
Close your eyes
Baby take off your shirt
I'm going to just hit the lights
Come on let me get to work
I'm going to hypnotise you
Then I'm going to yank your chain
And we can do it again
All over again
The lyrics of "Close My Eyes" by Lily and the Pearl explore the dynamic between two people in a sexual relationship. There is a sense of intimacy as the singer reveals vulnerability in the first verse admitting that she knows she's let herself go but still feels sexy when her partner undresses her. The chorus repeatedly urges the listener to close their eyes and let go, promising to hypnotize and satisfy them. The second verse suggests that the singer knows her partner's sexual prowess is unmatched by anyone else, warning that she would have to "kill" anyone who tried to compete with her for his affections.
Throughout the song, there are references to different elements of popular culture, from Beyoncรฉ and Jay-Z to riding a bike, indicating that the singer is open to experimenting with different personas and modes of pleasure. There is also a sense of playfulness in the lyrics, with phrases like "you blow my fucking mind" mixed in with more romantic language. The repetition of the chorus at the end of the song reinforces the idea that the singer wants the listener to fully let go and be transported by the power of their physical connection.
