Ruth Etting Close Your Eyes
Close your eyes
Rest your head on my shoulder and sleep
Close your eyes
And I will close mine
Close your eyes
Let's pretend that we're both counting sheep
Close your eyes
Oh, this is divine
Under a midnight sky
Watching a single star
Thrilled by the beauty up above
Alone, just you and I
Hearing a steel guitar
Thrilled by the beauty of our love
Close your eyes
Rest your head on my shoulder and sleep
Close your eyes
And I will close mine
Close your eyes
Let's pretend that we're both counting sheep
Close your eyes
Oh, this is divine
Music plays
Something dreamy for dancing while we're here romancing
It's love's holiday
And love will be our guide
Close your eyes
When you open them, dear, I'll be here
By your side
