JOHN DENVER - Don't Close Your Eyes, Tonight lyrics

rate me

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the dreamland express album, and has also been released on the the country roads collection album.

There's a tenderness that I feel very real you see,I can feel your body stir so deep within.

Let it be an act of love tonight completely,let me ask of you one thing.

Chorus:Don't close your eyes tonight,just look at me,see how many times I cried for you,don't close your eyes tonight,let it be me,not just a fantasy,let it be tonight.

You can lie so close to someone and still feel all alone,though I heard you say you love me so many times.When you give me love so beautiful and tender,someone else is in your mind.

chorus(x1)

Sorry if I cry,feelings run so deep,many is a time when I wake up and find Ive been crying in my sleep.look me in the eye,tell me what you see,Im the one who loves you,Im the one who needs you,make this one for me.

Chorus:(x2)
