Close My Eyes Lyrics by Mariah Carey Mariah Carey
Below, you will find the lyrics for Close My Eyes by Mariah Carey.
Verse 1
I was a wayward child
With the weight of the world
That i held deep inside
Life was a winding road
And i learned many things
Little ones shouldn't know
Chorus 1
But i closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my head to the sky
And though time's rolled by
Still i feel like a child
As i look at the moon
Maybe i grew up
A little too soon
Verse 2
Funny how one can learn
To grow numb to the madness
And block it away
I left the worse unsaid
Let it all dissipate
And i try to forget
Chorus 2
As i closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my head to the sky
And though time's rolled by
Still i feel like a child
As i look at the moon
Maybe i grew up
A little too soon
Bridge
Nearing the edge
Oblivious i almost
Fell right over
A part of me
Will never be quite able
To feel stable
That woman-child
Feeling inside
Was on the verge of fading
Thankfully i
Woke up in time
Verse 3
Guardian angel, i
Sail away on an ocean
With you by my side
Orange clouds roll by
They burn into your image
And you're still alive
Chorus 3
As i closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my head to the sky
And though time's rolled by
Still i feel like a child
As i look at the moon
Maybe i grew up
A little too soon
