Close Your Eyes
Embrace the Dream: Stacey Kent's Romantic Serenade
Lyrics
Close your eyes,
Encouragement to shut your eyes.
Put your head on my shoulder and sleep.
Rest your head on my shoulder and sleep.
Close your eyes.
Reiteration of the request to close your eyes.
And I will close mine.
A pledge to reciprocate by closing the speaker's eyes.
Close your eyes,
A repetition of the request to close your eyes.
Let's pretend that we're both counting sheep.
Imagining a shared scenario, engaging in a calming activity (counting sheep).
Close your eyes.
Repeated encouragement to close your eyes.
This is divine.
Expressing the moment's bliss or perfection.
Music play,
Invoking music to set a dreamy atmosphere for dancing.
Something dreamy for dancing,
Describing the nature of the music as dreamy and suitable for dancing.
While we're romancing,
Linking the music to a romantic ambiance.
It's loves holiday.
Referring to the moment as a special occasion, akin to a holiday for love.
And love will be our guide.
Love being the guiding force or principle.
Close your eyes,
Repetition of the request to close your eyes.
When you open them dear I'll be near.
Promising closeness upon opening eyes.
By your side.
Assurance of being present and supportive.
So won't you close your eyes?
Repeating the plea to close your eyes.
Close your eyes
Continued emphasis on closing your eyes.
Close your eyes
-Close your eyes,
Repeated encouragement to shut your eyes.
Put your head on my shoulder and sleep.
Rest your head on my shoulder and sleep.
Close your eyes.
Reiteration of the request to close your eyes.
And I will close mine.
A pledge to reciprocate by closing the speaker's eyes.
Close your eyes,
Repetition of the request to close your eyes.
Let's pretend that we're both counting sheep.
Imagining a shared scenario, engaging in a calming activity (counting sheep).
Close your eyes.
Repeated encouragement to close your eyes.
