When I close my eyes,
All I see is you, us,
And the way we were.

When I close my eyes,
I see our willow tree,
Our Playhouse, our castle,
And you were the queen.

When I close my eyes,
I see your face, staring back at me.

When I close my eyes,
I don’t want to go to sleep.
Because all I want is you.

When I close my eyes
When I close my eyes

This is for the one person I will never forget, those six short years were the best in my life.
