Lizz Wright - When I Close My Eyes Lyrics

When I close my eyes, I can almost taste you
I can't face you, you're still too strong
And it's no surprise, I can't erase you
I tried to replace you but it all went wrong

'Cause seeds don't crawl off the mountains
And they don't fall, fall from the tree
And they don't drop, not when you're counting
Or maybe that's my sweet philosophy
Yeah, yeah, yeah

When I close my eyes, I dream about you
Tell me how to, tell me how not to
Grab on to something new
I looked my fate past through

But instead I keep on holding on
I keep holding on when I close my eyes
I think about you, I just can't let you go
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
