Steve Earle, Steve Earle & The Dukes - Close Your Eyes Lyrics

I dreamed you were standing
On the edge of the world
And I thought I heard you call out
With one foot on the rock
And one a cloud
Was it just the wind that I heard

[Chorus]
Close your eyes
This world won't stop spinning you know
Close your eyes
Why don't you just let go

Thousands of people, searchin' out there
Most of 'em lookin' for love
But nothing, is something
That there's plenty of
In time we'll all get our share

[Chorus]

When I was a child
And they put me to bed
They always took care that I prayed
But the part that goes, if I should
Die 'fore I wake
Echoed all night in my head

[Chorus: x2]
