I’LL JUST CLOSE MY EYES (and make believe it’s you)
(Jimmy Kennedy)
Anne Shelton
If I should dance with someone else
Don’t let it make you blue
I’ll just close my eyes
And make believe it’s you
If someone new should hold my hand
Don’t think that I’m untrue
I’ll just close my eyes
And make believe it’s you
Though other arms may for a while enfold me
I’ll remember all you told me
Only your arms will hold me
If other lips are close to mine
You’ll still be smiling through
I’ll just close my eyes
And make believe it’s you
We’re parting, my darling
And you’re worried I know
Don’t worry, my darling
Now that I have to go
I know I’ll meet lots of people,
Make some friends that are new
But I don’t want a lot of people
All I love and want is you
(Musical Break)
Though other arms may for a while enfold me
I’ll remember all you told me
Only your arms will hold me
If other lips are close to mine
You’ll still be smiling through
I’ll just close my eyes
And make believe it’s you
