If I Close My Eyes

Hey – how are you doing? I hope everything’s ok Girl, you know how much I hate to text you This is the sixth one today You know how much I love you It’s getting so hard to keep this up I need to know – are the rumors true Please, just let me know what’s up Your silence speaks so loudly I hope what they’re saying isn’t true They keep blowing up my phone Please girl, tell me what to do If I close my eyes Maybe they can’t see How much I love you And how your silence is killing me Sometimes it’s hard to let go I can’t face reality So If I close my eyes Maybe they can’t see I ran into John the other day He said he saw you with someone new He said you looked so happy I’m sure it’s just an old friend from back in school Again, girl I love you so much But it’s getting harder each and every day Pretending and denying That our love will never fade If I close my eyes Maybe they can’t see How much I love you And how your silence is killing me Sometimes it’s hard to let go I can’t face reality So If I close my eyes Maybe they can’t see [Bridge] Ok I get it girl What they were saying was the true You were just playing me I was blind to all the proof So ill move on And live to love another day With my eyes wide open True love will light the way Once I was lost - blind But now I can see Because your love Was killing me Now I see clearly I’m facing reality I’ve opened my eyes And now I see Yea I’ve opened my eyes And now I see
