"Close Our Eyes" Lyrics

[Tommy] I picked a rose among these ancient walls
A garden made for love
but nothing grows at all
I heard your laughter and I almost knew
That we'd share our life together
[Tiffany] And still surrounded by this fortress strong
Kept from your loving arms too long

[Tiffany & Tommy] If we just close our eyes and begin a new day
We could turn back the time to a world far away
Where our hearts beat as one through the passing of ages
[Tommy] Oh, we could turn back time start a brand new day
[Tiffany] If we just close our eyes

[Tommy] I saw you walking with the sacred fire
A girl her eyes so wild with anger and confusion
The only spark of life to grace this land
[Tiffany & Tommy] We shared this hope eternal (Male whisper: eternal)
[Tiffany] And now it seems as though you've found your place
([Tommy] found your place)
Lost my loving embrace

[Tiffany & Tommy] If we just close our eyes and begin a new day
We could turn back the time to a world far away
Where our hearts beat as one through the passing of ages
[Tommy] Oh, we could turn back time start a brand new day
[Tiffany] If we just close our eyes

[Tommy] I'll give more than forever
[Tiffany] Our love will carry us away
[Tiffany & Tommy] Together we'll fly if we just close our eyes

[Tiffany & Tommy] If we just close our eyes and begin a new day
We could turn back the time to a world far away
Where our hearts beat as one through the passing of ages
[Tommy] Oh, we could turn back time start a brand new day
[Tiffany] If we just close our eyes
