Patrick Ballantyne close your eyes

Select language to translate this lyric

I found a picture of a friend
So handsome with a cockeyed California grin
Dry martini Bombay gin
He had a way to hold your day for ransom
Until you'd came out to play
Beach bikini surf and skin
Close your eyes and the dream will be complete
Close your eyes and reality is cheated
So stay close and close your eyes
He found a girl we didn't know
And asked her to please hold on to our hands
Lead us to the Promised Land
Well she didn't say no
And soon we were flying right by her side
Up where man and gods collide
A found a picture of a friend departed
Who never will go away
Raise a glass to yesterday
