Alan G. – Don't Close Your Eyes lyrics

Why constantly put us on trial
What gives them the right to revile

Hatred and fear
All at work here
Attacking everything that you hold dear

Don’t be afraid
If freedom is late
Justice will shine on our fate

Don’t close your eyes, my baby yeah
Whenever your heart has had enough
Don’t close your eyes, my darlin’ yeah
If ever you think you should give up

Don’t close your eyes
You’ll miss the surprise
Don’t close your eyes, my baby yeah
Life’s becoming all that you dreamed of

What suspicion will they now exploit
So the world frightens and disappoints

Hatred and pain
Descend into shame
Fighting your courage with madness and blame

Miracles need
A moment to breathe
Before they make you believe

Don’t close your eyes, my baby yeah
Whenever your heart has had enough
Don’t close your eyes, my darlin’ yeah
If ever you think you should give up

Don’t close your eyes
You’ll miss the surprise
Don’t close your eyes, my baby yeah
Life’s becoming all that you dreamed of

This day
They think deception will have the last say
They pray
To bury the hatchet for good in your back

Believe
Destiny bends toward the light that we see
Trust me
When you are under attack – Set yourself free

Don’t don’t close your eyes
Don’t don’t believe their lies, the
Sun will, sun will rise
And you will see, you will see

Don’t don’t look away cuz
Hope has lost it's way, let
Our love seize the day
And we’ll be free, we’ll be free

Don’t close your eyes
You’ll miss the surprise
Don’t close your eyes, my baby yeah
Life’s becoming all that you dreamed of

Don’t close your eyes, my baby yeah
Whenever your heart has had enough
Don’t close your eyes, my darlin’ yeah
If ever you think you should give up

Don’t close your eyes
You’ll miss the surprise
Don’t close your eyes, my baby yeah
Life’s becoming all that you dreamed of
