Close My Eyes Lyrics - Gloria Estefan

If I could just close my eyes 

See just what I wanted to see. 

It would be much easier to live this life, 

Thinking that it never really comes down to me. 

Sometimes I wanna close my eyes. 

So I can't see time while slipping away. 

Where all walking a very fine line, 

Until reality is somehow thrown in our face. 

Bury it deep and maybe you won't feel the pain. 

But you can't let it go. 

Down the line it will be back again.

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

If we could all close our eyes 

To all the things we know that are wrong 

We could live selfishly protected lives 

Not even think about what we could have done. 

Say it's not there and maybe it will go away. 

But the truth is it won't 

Down the line it will be back again. 

And rather than examine it 

I think I better handle it 

What good is it to close my eyes 

Or tell myself another lie 

Gotta get along somehow and sometimes the only way 

It's to close my eyes 

Photos 

Sometimes I have to close my eyes 

And let you think you can make a fool out of me. 

But I set myself up each time 

By trusting you so openly yeah 

That's the way I wanna be, that's the way I wanna be...
