Mariah Carey — Close My Eyes Acoustic 2020

[Intro] (Ladadadada lada lada ladadada ladada dala dala) [Verse 1] I was a wayward child With the weight of the world That I held deep inside Life was a winding road And I learned many things Little ones shouldn't know [Chorus] But I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And the times rolled by Still I feel like a child As I look at the moon Maybe I grew up A little too soon [Verse 2] Funny how one can learn To grow numb to the madness And block it away I left the worse unsaid Let it all dissipate And I try to forget [Chorus] As I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on thе ground Raised my head to the sky And thе time rolled by Still I feel like a child As I look at the moon Maybe I grew up A little too soon [Bridge] Nearing the edge (Nearing the edge) Oblivious I almost (Oblivious) Fell right over (I almost just) A part of me (A part of me) Will never be quite able (Will never be) To feel stable (Able to feel) That woman-child (That woman-child) Failing inside (Failing inside) Was on the verge of fading (Practically died) Thankfully I (Thankfully I) Woke up in time (Woke up in time, time, time) [Verse 3] Guardian angel, I Sail away on an ocean With you by my side Orange clouds roll by They burn into your image And you're still alive [Chorus] As I closed my eyes (You are, you're always alive) Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky (Guardian angel) And though time's rolled by (and the time's rolled by) Still I feel like a child As I look at the moon Maybe I grew up A little too soon
