 Close your eyes and dream
 And you can be with me
 'Neath the waves, through the cave of hours
 Long forgotten now
 We're all alone, we're all alone

 C         Dm                C/E
 Close the window, calm the light

 And it will be all right
     C7             F
 No need to bother now

 Let it out, let it all begin

 Learn how to pretend

 Once a story's told
 It can't help but grow old
 Roses do, lovers too, so cast
 Your seasons to the wind
 And hold me dear, oh, hold me dear

 Close the window, calm the light
 And it will be all right
 No need to bother now
 Let it out, let it all begin

 We're all alone, we're all alone

 Close the window, calm the light
 And it will be all right
 No need to bother now
 Let it out, let it all begin

 Oh, hold me dear

 We're all alone, we're all alone
