Every Time I Close My Eyes
by Babyface


Girl, it's been a long, long time comin' (yes it has)
But I, I know that it's been worth the wait (yeah)

It feels like springtime in winter
It feels like Christmas in June
It feels like heaven has opened up
Its gates for me and you

And every time I close my eyes
I thank the Lord that I've got you (that I got you)
And you've got me too
And every time I think of it
I pinch myself 'cause I don't believe it's true (yeah)
That someone like you loves me too, yeah

Girl, I think that you're truly somethin'
Yes, you are, and you're, you're every bit of a dream come true
(yes you are)
With you baby, it never rains and it's no wonder
The sun always shines when I'm near you
It's just a blessing that I have found somebody like you
(oooh)

And every time I close my eyes
I thank the Lord that I've got you (that I got you)
And you've got me too (babe)
And every time I think of it
I pinch myself 'cause I don't believe it's true (yeah)
That someone like you loves me too

To think of all the nights I've cried myself to sleep, yes
You really oughta know how much you mean to me
It's only right that you be in my life
Right here with me, oh baby, baby

(I tell you girl that)
Every time I close my eyes
I thank the Lord that I've got you (baby)
And you've got me too
And every time I think of it
I pinch myself 'cause I don't believe it's true (yeah)
That someone like you loves me too, yeah
(loves me too)
