you told me who you were but i guess i never heard you thought it treason
'til i saw you from the floor running out the door you had your reasons
but don't close your eyes 'cause you might need them now but don't close your eyes you might need them now
well, i pulled you off the fence to see the consequence; we didn't dream it
then i looked into your eyes but you hid in a disguise i'd never seen it
but don't close your eyes 'cause you might need them now don't close your eyes don't close your eyes yeah, yeah
baby, you were my baby i put my writing on the wall but you never read at all maybe, only maybe if i run into the sea you can watch me stop to breathe and feel...
i rose up from a dream to a nightmare from a scene of a motion picture the rocks began to slide and everybody died in just a flicker
so don't close your eyes 'cause you might need them now don't close your eyes don't close your eyes hey-yeah
baby, you were my baby i put my writing on the wall but you never read at all maybe, only maybe if i run into the sea you can watch me stop to breathe and feel...
i still see it on your mind but that will pass in time 'cause time will heal it
so don't close your eyes 'cause you might need them now don't close your eyes you might need them now.
