Well, I close my eyes, close my eyes
Is that all I am, just starved of loving?
To keep me safe from loving
To see ourselves as others see
And I see you still in the shuttered night
Well, I close my eyes, close my eyes
To the cold flame of the Northern Lights
What a newfound friend, his honesty
To see the shy boy inside the man
One more black and tan on the barricade
To the cold flame of the Northern Lights
Well, I close my eyes, close my eyes
Well, I close my eyes, close my eyes
