I Close My Eyes
Erasure Song Lyrics

To the sound of the sky and I seeBirds in the trees in pastures greenNothing to doWith the time or the place I perceiveThe rush of the sea beneath my feetSuch a lovely worldOh so magicalPrecious like a pearlWrapped up in a shellBuild your house of stoneOn a bed of sandTime and tide will riseWashing through your handsHear your heartSee the loveFeel the soul lift upHear your heartSee the loveFeel the soul lift upI lift my eyesTo the sound in the sky and I hear itA voice on the breeze is so sereneNothing to doWith the time or the place but I feel itLike dust on the moon beneath my feetSuch a lovely worldOh so magicalSo the story goesSing the madrigalWhat a lovely worldWaxing lyricalSee the lies unfoldHear the miracleHear your heartSee the loveFeel the soul lift upHear your heartSee the loveFeel the soul lift upSo the story goes...The lies and the miracle unfold(Precious miracleWrapped in a shellBuild your house of stone on the sandTime and tide will wash through your handsFeel the soul lift upHear your heartSee the loveFeel your soul lift upI lift my eyes to the sound of the sky and I hear itA voice on the breezeSo serene)
