I Close My Eyes

I close my eyes 
And close out the light
I put my warm little hands over them
And listen closely 
To the sounds in the air 
Around me

One two three 
Ringalirio
Here i come 
Ready or not

I charge out like a 
Race hoarse from the gate
But there is nobody there 
To be caught
Just laughter left behind
And places to go to find them  

Here i come
