Close Your Eyes and It All Goes Black Lyrics & Tabs by Kid Sam
Close Your Eyes and It All Goes Black
guitar chords lyrics
"Can I take your photograph?" I said to you on the bridge
That day when we were stood there
I need some proof, just a small piece of evidence
A record to show we were here
"No, don't take my photograph," you said as I took it
"No please, don't you take it at all
You're just like the hunter shooting his target to
Hang its skin up on his wall"
You held in your fingers a little white feather
You'd found earlier in the street
In the street, in the city, where the pigeons and people
Cross paths as they walk the concrete
You said, "You can't make a mark on the surface of water
The way you can write on a wall
The ripples you leave will disappear quickly"
You said, "You can't make a mark on the surface of water
The way you can write on a wall
The ripples you leave will disappear quickly"
And you let the white feather fall
I said, "I fear I'm falling, I'll leave just a ripple
I'm frightened to think about it"
You said, "Close your eyes, close your eyes and it all goes black"
And for a moment I did
Who will remember us, who will remember us
When those who remember us go?
