Now and then I like awake,
Watch you as you sleep,
The morning light around your face,
The rhythm as you breathe,
Once forever held me down,
Today's forever sweet,
Heaven somewhere far beyond,
Beyond is now so near,
All at once I'm running,
I'm out breath in love,
I'ts been a long time coming,
Our love is moving up.
Chorus
Close your eyes to heaven,
(To heaven),
Hold on to your dreams,
Close your eyes to heaven,
(To heaven),
There's more than we can see,
A love that we can build remains,
A fortress strong indeed,
A love like ours won't fly away,
Though all our hearts have wings,
We have to close our eyes to be sure.
Sometimes love just tumbles out,
Leaves us flying blind,
Now we have learnt to work it out,
'Cause we have time for time,
All at once we're running,
We're out of breath in love,
It's been a long time coming,
Our love is moving up.
Chorus
Close your eyes to heaven,
(To heaven),
Hold on to your dreams,
Close your eyes to heaven,
(To heaven),
There's more than we can see,
A love that we can build remains,
A fortress strong indeed,
A love like ours won't fly away,
Though all our hearts have wings,
We have to close our eyes to be sure.
To be sure...
All at once we're running,
We're out of breath in love,
(Breath in love),
It's been a long time coming,
Our love is moving up.
Close your eyes to heaven,
(To heaven),
Hold on to your dreams,
Close your eyes to heaven
(To heaven),
There's more than we can see,
Close your eyes to heaven,
(To heaven, To heaven),
Close your eyes to heaven...
Watch you as you sleep,
The morning light around your face,
The rhythm as you breathe,
Once forever held me down,
Today's forever sweet,
Heaven somewhere far beyond,
Beyond is now so near,
All at once I'm running,
I'm out breath in love,
I'ts been a long time coming,
Our love is moving up.
Chorus
Close your eyes to heaven,

Hold on to your dreams,
Close your eyes to heaven,

A love like ours won't fly away,

Close your eyes to heaven...
