(Buck Owens) Maybe if I close my eyes it will go away If I pretend there never was I thing 'tween you and me For I can't sleep and I can't eat it haunts me night and day But maybe if I close my eyes it will go away. You say you're a fascination that I will soon forget But it won't be long and I'll forget you ever did exist But when I love I really love yes I'll go all the way But maybe if I close my eyes it will go away. You say that I must accept the truth that you're not coming back Be reasonable at my age and faithful to the fact But when I love I really love yes I'll go all the way But maybe if I close my eyes it will go away...
