Close your eyes and count to three; 
we'll close our eyes together. 
Close your eyes and we are free; 
just close your eyes forever. 
As she waits for peace to come, 
we stand and wait together. 
Her eyes are closed she dreams a dream, 
I keep her here forever. 
As she waits, 
we wait together. 
Her eyes are closed to what I am. 
She waits for things to come, 
I hold her down with sighs of time, 
and I sigh of things undone. 
I speak of dreams when angels come 
to drown away tomorrow 
as we wait she sighs again 
I drown her I my sorrows.
