When They Close For Evermore

When i close my eyes to sleep
Will there be light in them tomorrow
When they close for evermore
Then no one will know my sorrow

As every day encroaches
My eyes grow more tired every day
When they close for evermore
Will i be around to see them say

When it happens will i realise
That daylight becomes eternal night
When they close for evermore
And when they do, will i regain my sight
