lyrics

she said, "i'll come by you"
a little later now that's something new
i've been sitting here for quite some time
last minute making plans for the night
i can try, i might get somewhere
i'll just wait until i feel your stare
it helps to change, but you must beware
nothing matters unless it's all fair
do you see everything the same way?
are you just waiting until i am made?

girl you gotta know when to close your eyes
what you're going to do when you close your eyes
the feeling won't quit when you close your eyes
darling now you know when to close your eyes

you live your life completely unaware
am i too young for wanting to share?
i want to understand what i should be
close your eyes and imagine what i see
your desires are all for you, maybe mine are all askew
there's nothing more sincere than your fake tears
you will be mine dear, you will be mine dear

she said, "i'll come by you"
a little later now that's something new

girl you gotta know when to close your eyes
what you're going to do when you close your eyes
the feeling won't quit when you close your eyes
darling now you know when to close your eyes
