Lyrics

(Am)Ba by, I get so scared in side, and I (G)don’t real ly un der stand.

Is it (F)love that’s on my mind, or is it (Am)fan ta sy?

(Am)Heav en is in the palm of my hand, and it’s (G)wait ing here for you.

What am (F)I sup posed to do with a child hood (Am)trag e dy?

If I close my eyes for ev er,

will it all re main un changed?

If I close my eyes for ev er,

will it all re main the same?

(Am)Some times it’s hard to hold on, so hard to (G)hold on to my dreams.

It is n’t (F)al ways what it seems when you’re face to face with me.

And like a (Am)dag ger,

you stick me in the heart

and taste the blood from my blade.

And (F)when we sleep, would you shel ter me in your (Am)warm and dark ened grave?

If I close my eyes for (Am)ev er,

will it all re main un changed?

If I close my eyes for (Am)ev er,

will it all re main the same?

Will you ev er take me?

No, I just can’t take the pain.

Would you ev er trust me?

No, I’ll nev er feel the (Dm)same.

I know I’ve been so (G)hard on you,

I know I’ve told you lies.

If I could have just (G)one more wish,

I know I’ve told you lies.

I’d wipe the cob webs from my (Am)eyes.

Oh, yeah.

(Am)Close your eyes.

(G)Close your eyes.

You got ta (F)close your eyes for me.
