Story Behind The Song
Close your eyes and pretend that it is me
That your holding in your arms tonight
I'm the one that you long to see, oh---
I'm gonna take you on a magic carpet ride
All you gotta do
Is close your eyes
I'll be the one inside your mind
When you lay your weary head to sleep
I'll be deep inside your dreams, oh---
If there's a heaven, then I'm your angel
I'll be there forever
Whenever you close your eyes
Don't you want to see me in your mind?
'Cause I"m hoping if you do, then maybe I will also see you
Come on, close your eyes
I'm gonna take you on a magic carpet ride
All you gotta do
Is close your eyes
I'll be the one inside your mind
When you lay your weary head to sleep
I'll be deep inside your dreams, oh---
If there's a heaven, then I'm your angel
I'll be there forever
Whenever you close your eyes

Performed by Midori
Close your eyes and pretend that it is me
That your holding in your arms tonight
I'm the one that you long to see, oh---
I'm gonna take you on a magic carpet ride
All you gotta do
Is close your eyes
I'll be the one inside your mind
When you lay your weary head to sleep
I'll be deep inside your dreams, oh---
If there's a heaven, then I'm your angel
I'll be there forever
Whenever you close your eyes
Don't you want to see me in your mind?
'Cause I"m hoping if you do, then maybe I will also see you
Come on, close your eyes
I'm gonna take you on a magic carpet ride
All you gotta do
Is close your eyes
I'll be the one inside your mind
When you lay your weary head to sleep
I'll be deep inside your dreams, oh---
If there's a heaven, then I'm your angel
I'll be there forever
Whenever you close your eyes
