Close Your Eyes [how we love to fall]

All of these coffee shop songs are kind of dark. This was originally untitled, and then for a while it went by the name Untitled 1. Then I decided to name it based on the lyrics, but couldn't decide between "Close Your Eyes" and "How We Love to Fall." None of them really do it for me... your thoughts?

Not much else to say about this one, but I do have a recording of it that will go up eventually. The more comments I get for this, the faster it will go up...

Close Your Eyes (how we loved to fall)

in nights like these all faces look the same
in nights like these our figures have no names
it's nights like these when we become dreamy violations
that aren't present during the day

[and how we loved to fall]
[like our shadows stretched out on the wall]
[and how we loved to fall]
[after all...]

here they lay again
his words, they tiptoe through the den
here they lay again
he wonders if he'll never see that
place again
the home they left and the life they lead, that
place again
where her words were familiar, they'd friendly
dance and bend
in shapes they'd banter yin and yang, they'd
dance and bend
in a dark that wouldn't hide them.

in nights like these all faces look the same
in nights like these our figures have no names
it's nights like these when we become dreamy violations
that aren't present during the day

[and how we loved to fall]
[like our shadows stretched out on the wall]
[and how we loved to fall]
[after all...]

the days, they end in night...
when the world closes its eyes, it'll set things right
when the day.... ends.... in night
close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes
close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes

oh, how we loved to fall...... after all.
