Don't Close Your Eyes Tonight

Dont Close Your Eyes Tonight John Denver (1985)

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

Don't close your eyes tonight

Just look at me, see how many times I've cried for you

Don't close your eyes tonight

Let it be me, not just a fantasy

Let it be me tonight

You can lie so close to someone

And still feel all alone

Though I've heard you say

You love me so many times

When you give me love

So beautiful, and tender

Someone else is in your mind

Don't close your eyes tonight

Just look at me, see how many times I've cried for you

Don't close your eyes tonight

Let it be me, not just a fantasy

Let it be me tonight

Sorry if I cry- feelings run so deep

Many is the time when I wake up and find
I've been crying in my sleep

Look me in the eye,

Tell me what you see

I'm the one who loves you

I'm the one who needs you

Make this one for me

Don't close your eyes tonight

Just look at me, see how many times I've cried for you

Don't close your eyes tonight

Let it be me, not just a fantasy

Let it be me tonight
