[Verse 1]

I don't ask to hold your hand

You slip yours into mine

Silently, we walk along

We stumble home at night

And it's so dark along these streets

Since they took out the street lights

You get scared so easily

That you give me half a fright



[Verse 2]

Turn the landing light on

Turn the heating on full

I know we don't really need it, darling

But we don't wanna catch a chill

I head into the kitchen

And pour a couple of glasses of wine

Cos I know whose arms you'll be in tonight

And I know the answer is mine



[Chorus]

Oh, shut my eyes

Shut my eyes

Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming

Shut my eyes

Shut my eyes

Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming



[Verse 3]

Sunlight streams into my eyes

It always brings me to

I didn't mean to wake you, darling

But I can't keep my eyes off of you

And when you leave

I will walk you out the door

Cos I know it won't be long until

You come back into the warm



[Chorus]

Oh, shut my eyes

Shut my eyes

Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming

Shut my eyes

Shut my eyes

Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming



[Instrumental]



[Final Chorus]

Oh, shut my eyes

Shut my eyes

Shut my eyes, I'm dreaming

Shut my eyes, shut my eyes

Oh, when I shut my eyes

I'm dreaming
