I Close My Eyes - Ken Hensley

When I think about the distance between us

And how hard it is

At times here on my own

Then I think about your smile

About our love a little while

I close my eyes and I’m not alone

Though my footsteps fall

My heart won’t ever stumble

Through a thousand miles a day

My love won’t tire

For with each passing day

I pray that our love is here to stay

I close my eyes and I’m not alone

Sometimes I whisper your name

Or dream awhile a lonely lovers' game

All I’m trying to say

Is that I love you in my way

And though the days seem long

I’ll soon be coming home

As I leave my song

My heart belongs to you, my love

There really are no more words

That I can find

For my love, you are my life

You are the colour in my sight

And I close my eyes

And kiss you goodnight
