[Intro]
(Oh, yeah)
[Verse 1]
I never closed the curtains after you left
I still smell the rocket fumes
I try to forget the night we laid out on the lawn
Our faces white in the eyes of the moon
[Pre-Chorus]
I-I-I-I can wait a thousand years before you can chastice my tears
But please remember, baby, don’t forget the times we spent here on Earth
[Chorus]
Who is the one who makes me closе my eyes?
When еveryone else has beaten down my pride
I could be halfway around this Earth
And you know, I’ll still be on your mind
[Verse 2]
You never quite seemed like you belonged (hey, hey)
I wouldn’t let myself be fooled
Of all the pretty faces smiling here on Earth
Oh, I cannot see them next to you
[Pre-Chorus]
I-I-I-I can wait a thousand years before you can chastice my tears
But please remember, baby, don’t forget the times we spent here on Earth
[Chorus]
Who is the one who makes me close my eyes?
When everyone else has beaten down my pride
I could be halfway around this Earth
And you know, I’ll still be on your mind
(ah, ah, ah, ah)
[Bridge]
Don’t look back (look back), don’t make a sound (a sound)
You’re better off on your own
Find a new life (find a new life), forget what we had (forget what we had)
This atmosphere is sad enough for us both (oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
I never closed the curtains after you left
But now you’re eons away (oh, woah)
[Chorus]
Who is the one who makes me close my eyes? (oh, yeah)
When everyone else has beaten down my pride (beaten down my pride)
I could be halfway around this Earth
And you know, I’ll still be on your mind (still be on your mind)
(oh yeah)
Still be on your mind (woah-oh-oh)
Still be on your mind
