Lirik Lagu Close My Eyes (Acoustic) ~ Mariah Carey

I was a wayward child

With the weight of the world

That I held deep inside

Life was a winding road

And I learned many things

Little ones shouldn't know

But I closed my eyes

Steadied my feet on the ground

Raised my head to the sky

And the times rolled by

Still I feel like a child

As I look at the moon

Maybe I grew up a little too soon

Funny how one can learn

To grow numb to the madness

And block it away

I left the worst unsaid

Let it all dissipate

And I try to forget

As I closed my eyes

Steadied my feet on the ground

Raised my head to the sky

And the times rolled by

Still I feel like a child

As I look at the moon

Maybe I grew up a little too soon

Nearing the edge

Oblivious I almost fell right over

A part of me

Will never be quite able to feel stable

That woman-child failing inside

Was on the verge of fading

Thankfully I woke up in time

Guardian angel, I

Sail away on an ocean

With you by my side

Orange clouds roll by

They burn into your image

And you're still alive

But I closed my eyes

(You are, you're always a light)

Steadied my feet on the ground

(Mmm, mmm)

Raised my head to the sky

(Guardian angel)

And the times rolled by

(And the times rolled by)

Still I feel like a child

As I look at the moon

Maybe I grew up a little too soon
