Lyrics for Close Your Eyes And Remember
Blowing softly through a meadow Laughing like a baby, breeze Tapping lightly at the treetops Whispering among the leaves You hear the magic song that ancient poets sing, yeah It's sweet as morning dew, and sounds a lot like springtime (When you close your eyes), you feel your heart go there So close your eyes, and you may find that Fireflies were as bright as stars Close your eyes and remember Summer time lingered on and on Close your eyes and remember Your first love made the world stand still Close your eyes and remember Close your eyes and remember, remember (remember when) The moon was made of cheese Racing swiftly through the mountains Bubbling along the stream (along the stream...) Sighing sweetly through the hollow Gentle as an infant's dream (baby's dream, baby's dream...) You hear the magic song that ancient poets sing, yeah It's sweet as morning dew, and sounds a lot like springtime (When you close your eyes), you feel your heart go there So close your eyes, and you may find that (Fireflies) fireflies were as bright as stars Close your eyes and remember Summer time lingered on and on Close your eyes and remember Get asleep Close your eyes and remember Fireflies Close your eyes and remember Summer time Close your eyes and remember
