Mariah Carey - Close My Eyes

I was 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 But I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And though time's rolled by Still I feel like that child as I look at the moon Maybe I grew up a little too soon La la la da da La la la da da da da La la la da da Da da, da da La la la da da La la la da da da da La la la da da Da da, da da Funny how one can learn To grow numb to the madness and block it away (block it away) I left the worst unsaid Let it all dissipate and I try to forget But I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And though time's rolled by Still feel like that child as I look at the moon Maybe I grew up a little too soon La la la da da La la la da da da da La la la da da Da da, da da La la la da da La la la da da da da La la la da da Da da, da da Nearing the edge (nearing the edge) Oblivious I almost (oblivious) Fell right over (fell right over) A part of me (a part of me) Will never be quite able (will never be) To feel stable (will never be) That woman-child falling inside (that woman-child) Was on the verge of fading (I) Thankfully I (thankfully I) Woke up in time (woke up in time, time, time) 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 (you're always alive) But I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And though time's rolls by Still feel like that child as I look at the moon Maybe I grew up a little too soon La la la da da La la la da da da da La la la da da Da da, da da La la la da da La la la da da da da La la la da da Da da, da da La la la da da La la la da da da da La la la da da Da da, da da La la la da da La la la da da da da La la la da da Da da, da da
