I Close My Eyes to See - Haroula Rose

The rain falls over me

The river runs to the sea

Dream of peace as the way

But we wake and fight every day

We want to be free from the chains

So we leave for more of the same

The world goes by

But I, I stay inside

Where I’ll be anything

I close my eyes to see

We want to feel the sun on our faces

But fear its greatness

Let’s row our boats to shore

We’ll go where no one’s alone anymore

The world goes by

But I, I stay inside

Where we can be anything I close my eyes to see

You call my name

But I’ve gone away
