Take My Hand-Close My Eyes
George Kooymans, Barry Hay
Why am I tonight, feelin' so low
My poor head is spinnin' round and round and round
Could it be that, by a total lack of love
In fact I'm busy, dyin'
Tell me where or when,
Tell me how I'll go
Am I invited to your dreams,
I'd like to know
Why I tremble and talk in my sleep
Maybe only time will take away the pain
Take my hand - close my eyes
Lead me back into your paradise
I ain't wakin' up, I'm too tired you know
Like a drifter by the side of a dusty road
What if you found me in the middle of the night
Would it matter, I'm down and out alright
I am brain-dead, I'm invisible
I am drowning in a river called "Vertigo"
And the moonlight, such a sad night
Now that love ain't coming 'round no more
Take my hand - close my eyes
Lead me back into your paradise
