| Close my eyes and think of you
|
| Go to sleep and dream of you
|
| We don’t get to be here long
|
| I gave you the best of me
|
| Loved you more than anything
|
| But we don’t get to be here long
|
| We don’t get to be here long
|
| And though my heart may be in pieces
|
| My eyes are still set on you
|
| And though I can’t keep it together
|
| I know that you want me, too
|
| Oh, I’m swimming in the grief
|
| And there’s no anchor that can hold me down
|
| I don’t want any relief
|
| Cause I don’t wanna let you go right now
|
| Close my eyes and think of you
|
| Go to sleep and dream of you
|
| We don’t get to be here long
|
| (We don’t get to, we don’t get to be here)
|
| I gave you the best of me
|
| Loved you more than anything
|
| But we don’t get to be here long
|
| Though your moments were a charity
|
| They gave me more than I could use
|
| I know you found the promise land
|
| But I’m still here and I’m missing you
|
| Close my eyes and think of you
|
| Go to sleep and dream of you
|
| We don’t get to be here long
|
| (We don’t get to, we don’t get to be here)
|
| I gave you the best of me
|
| Loved you more than anything
|
| But we don’t get to be here long
|
| When the day comes and the fire is out
|
| I wanna know that I gave you all, I gave you all I had
|
| Yeah, when the day comes and the fire is out
|
| I wanna know that I gave you my everything
|
| Close my eyes and think of you
|
| Go to sleep and dream of you
|
| But we don’t get to be here long
|
| (We don’t get to, we don’t get to be here)
|
| I gave you the best of me
|
| Loved you more than anything
|
| But we don’t get to be here long
|
| Oh, we don’t get to be here long |
