lyrics

Close Your Eyes (Shand)

Why do you turn away
From all this love
I have to offer
You are in wanting
And your heart is
Slowly dying
You ignore it's cries
You just close your eyes

The love you hold at bay
Is aching to find warmth
And comfort
It has a message
Do you hear it softly sighing
As you sever ties
You just close your eyes

Close your eyes
To my love
Close your eyes
To these open arms
You know this life
Won't last forever

Who took your light away
You're sinking deep
Into the ocean
Why do you continue
To swim around in darkness
You won't see the light
If you close your eyes

Close your eyes
To my love
Close your eyes
To these open arms
You know this life
Won't last forever
Close your eyes

Who has taken from you
Until nothing is left to take
Out of mind out of body
The soul is the next to break
Come on out of the darkness
Reach out for a hand to take
Can you see me

How can you look away
When all I've ever done
Is worship you
Was there a misstep
That I'm blindly unaware of
I have told no lies
Still you close your eyes

Close your eyes
To my love
Close your eyes
To these open arms
Close your eyes
You close your eyes
You know this life
Won't last forever
Close your eyes

Jason Shand New York, New York

Jason Shand's goal with this 14-song collection was to make a substantive personal pop album that not only caters to this single-driven era, but also caters to the old school era of having a full length album where each song flows into the other, taking the listener on a sonic storytelling ride.

"With every song being a potential single, I'd like to think I succeeded. Can't wait to release it!" ... more
