We close our eyes   We close our eyes and dream and the world has turned around again      When everybody is running in the big race   And having a good time   Who am I to cast a shadow   Who am I?   I looked death in the face last night   I saw him in a mirror   And he simply smiled   He told me not to worry   He told me just to take my time      We close our eyes and the world has turned around again   We close our eyes and dream and another year has come and gone   We close our eyes and the world has turned around again   We close our eyes and dream      And if you come to me   And if you touch my hand   I might just slip away   I might just disappear   Who am I?   And if you think I'm worth it   And if you think it's not too late   We might start falling   If we don't try too hard   We might start falling in love      We close our eyes and the world has turned around again   We close our eyes and dream and another year has come and gone   We close our eyes and the world has turned around again   We close our eyes and dream      We're on the healing path   We're on a roller coaster ride   That can never turn back   And if you love me   And if you really try   To make those seconds count   Then we can close our eyes      We close our eyes and the world has turned around again   We close our eyes and dream and another year has come and gone   We close our eyes and the world has turned around again   We close our eyes and dream   We close our eyes and the world has turned around again
