Close Your Eyes is a song that truly was born out of the mist of all the pain from 9/11. This song is for all the tears we cried that day and beyound.

This song is for all the spirits lost on that day. We will never forget you....We will never forget the brave souls that stood up to fight.

We are your bothers!
We are your sisters!
We are you friends!

Close Your Eyes Close your eyes my darlin
Though I know that sometimes it’s hard to sleep
But tonight You’re here safe with me

OH what I’m seeing And what They’re saying
I should be Dreaming
Oh ooooh But I’m not Sleep’in
When Innocent people Die It leaves you wonderin why

An evil man He took a stand
Yeh Then he runs to hide
He’s got something to learn About American pride
Hey Taliban Come out and fight like a Man

This is the land of the free And I’m proud to live in the home of the brave
Their’s some things we could change
Yeah but Terror... Terror will never reign

We’ll fight for peace in all the world
For every MAN,BOY, WOMAN, and GIRL
To live proud of their lives and Their religions

An evil man can try But when innocent people die
You know he can’t run and hide forever

It’s a childs right to dream To see the world
Like it’s never been seen
One world That’s Free of evil

I guess it’s time for reasons Why, Why innocent people have to die But their’s one thing One thing that I know
It’s gonna take a while

So close Your eyes
Close your eyes my darlin
Though I know that sometimes It’s hard to sleep
But tonight you’re here safe
And someday the world will change
But tonight you’re here safe
Here with me
