When I close my eyes,
And “Only Time” is playing
I feel you near by - my better half.
My senses are fooled, but my heart is warm.
“What a way to make it through” the day.  Not knowing what the next day will be.
I would rather “Sail Away” with you than drown in my foolishness.
“Only Time” will tell what tomorrow will be.  
For the time being, closing my eyes is all I have.  It will have to do for now.
When I close my eyes, and feel you near by, they don’t stay close for long.  
Tears are stronger than ever imagined.
They opened up my eyes to what my heart could never see.
