(graham russell)

This is the time when you need a friend
You just need someone near
I'm not looking forward to the night i will spend
Thinking of you when you're not here
How many times will i think about the things
I'd like to do
Always denied the right to live my life the way i want
I want to share it with you

(chorus)
Close your eyes i want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes i want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams


I'll think of your kiss as the days roll by
And i'll write the words you love
And what i can't say in a letter
Will just have to wait till i get home


Ooh there's not much time to tell you half the things i should
Only that i'm so glad i fell in love with you
And i'd do it again if i could


(chorus)
Close your eyes i want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes i want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams
(repeat chorus)


Sleep like a child resting deep
You don't know what you give me i keep
For these moments alone


(chorus)
Close your eyes i want to ride the skies
In my sweet dreams
Close your eyes i want to see you tonight
In my sweet dreams
