Close Your Eyes
                                 by Judy Burnette

                    I can't be with you today
                    but if you close your eyes and think;
                    I'll be beside you in the kitchen
                    wearing your shirt - standing by the sink.

                    I'll be with you in the bedroom
                    waiting quietly on your bed;
                    Just close your eyes and think of me,
                    relive those memories in your head.

                    I'll stand by you in the bathroom,
                    an unlikely place to meet;
                    I'll smile at you so playfully
                    as I let you brush my teeth.
                    I'll be your light in the darkness,
                    shining steady through and through;
                    You only have to watch it glow
                    to know I think of you.
 

                    I'll be there in every song
             I'll be the music that you listen to,
                    I'll laugh with you and sing with you,
                    and comfort you when your day's gone wrong.
                    I'll be the wind that ruffles your hair,
                    I'll be that warm embrace;
                    I'll be the hand on your shoulder,
                    I'll be the tender touch on your face.
                    I'll be the clock gently ticking,
                    reminding you of the times;
                    We've shut the rest of the world outside
                    we're in our own world - yours and mine.
                    I'll be the moon as it dances
                    on the water cold and still;
                    For I have loved you always
                    and I know I always will.
                    Though you may not see me physically
                    as you live your life today;
                    Just close your eyes and think of me
                    I will  not be far away.
