When I Close My Eyes

Verse 1:

When I close my eyes, will the stars still shine?

Will the wind remember the breath that was mine?

Will my name be whispered on the edge of night,

Or fade like a shadow swallowed by the light?

Verse 2:

I’ve walked through fire, I’ve tasted the rain,

Carried my burdens, danced with my pain.

Now the silence calls with a voice so low,

A lullaby only the lost ones know.

Chorus:

If I die tonight, let the sky be wide,

Let the moonlight guide me to the other side.

Don’t cry for me, I’m finally free

Just a soul on wings, where I’m meant to be.

If I die, remember love

That’s the only thing we’re ever made of.

Verse 3:

Will the ones I loved still feel me near?

Will my laughter linger through the years?

This body fades, but the spirit flies,

In every goodbye, there’s a new sunrise.

Bridge:

Don’t wear black for too long, don’t kneel in regret,

Life is a poem that we never forget.

And when your time comes, don’t be afraid

I’ll be waiting in the light, where no shadows stay.

Final Chorus:

If I die tonight, let the stars align,

To write my story in the sands of time.

Don’t mourn too long, just live and be

For love outlives the final beat.

If I die, remember this

I left with peace… not with a kiss.
