Close My Eyes
Kate Fletcher
I don't have a leg to stand on
I don't have a hope in hell
But if you're at the end there waiting
I only hope you'll say I lived and did it well
But if I have to close my eyes to see
My ears to hear
If I have to close my mind to understand
I will not come back here again
Ten thousand thousand years
But only three score ten are mine
And every night I think of it
I know that I am running out of time
But if I have to close my eyes to see
My ears to hear
If I have to close my mind to understand
How can I come back here?
What will you do if I want you back?
I have to keep my head together
I do not have a leg to stand on now
What will you do if I want you back?
I have to keep my world together
I do not have a hope in hell
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do?
I read and read but still
Nothing seems to ring true
And every path I follow
Only ever leads me back to you
But you make me close my eyes to see
My ears to hear
And you make me close my mind to understand
I never want to come back here again
Not for the years and the learning
What will you do when I call you back?
I have to keep my head together
I do not have a leg to stand on now
What will you do when I want you back?
I have to keep my world together
I do not have a hope in hell
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do
When I call for you?
