When I Close My Eyes - Uncle Kracker

Guess I never thought again I'd hear your voice

When you packed your bags and pulled out of Detroit

Yea the snowfalls are long and hard to bear

Knowin' you're down south with sunshine on your hair

You sent a postcard from Graceland when you passed through

It read even though we lost I still love you

I keep it like a locket on a chain

I tell myself that I moved on but only half the way

And every time I close my eyes

You're dancin' 'neath the full moon light

Your faded jeans across the hood

My arms wrap 'round you tight and good

And I'm wiser than I was that day

Now I'd have some words to say

Ones that just might make you stay with me

That's only when I close my eyes

Lately I've been talking to God again

And the string of things I didn't do back then

No doubt I'm better off having had you

Yeah you taught me how to love

Taught me how to lose it too

And every time I close my eyes

You're dancin' 'neath the full moon light

Your faded jeans across the hood

My arms wrap 'round you tight and good

And I'm wiser than I was that day

Now I'd have some words to say

Ones that just might make you stay with me

That's only when I close my eyes

Every time I close my eyes

You're dancin' 'neath the full moon light

Your faded jeans across the hood

My arms wrap 'round you tight and good

And I'm wiser than I was that day

Now I'd have some words to say

Ones that just might make you stay with me

That's only when I close my eyes

When I close these eyes
