I Close My Eyes in Thanks (feat. Julieta Rod)

Berries on our lips and in our baskets Picking season, sunny afternoon Laughter lived where nobody could mask it Jars of joy with jam-encrusted spoons Summer-laden leaves could decorate us And Tuesdays felt like Sunday afternoon Later on, our duties would await us Somehow summer always ends too soon And when I flick through the pictures In my mind, in my memories Our lives all seem so small And I can't escape the thought That if I could relive those times, Then I'd close my eyes in thanks For having had them at all Life never ceased making moments And moments never ceased making joy Worry just directs us toward torment It didn't feel like that when I was a boy And when I flick through the pictures In my mind, in my memories Our lives all seem so small And I can't escape the thought That if I could relive those times Then I'd close my eyes in thanks For having had them at all I close my eyes in thanks For having had them at all
