  • What do you do, when it's fallin' apart?
    And you knew it was gone, from the very start
    Do you close your eyes and dream about me?

    A girl in love, with a gleam in her eye
    I was a younger boy, all dressed in white
    We're older now, I bet you still think about me

    I remember we learned about love
    In the back of a Chevrolet
    Well, it felt so good to be young
    Feels like yesterday

    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me
    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me
    Do you still dream about me

    I guess I don't know what I'm thinkin'
    Comin' off a hard night of drinkin'
    Angie come closer to me
    I need a soul to bleed on

    It could' a been done, in a different kinda way
    But that ain't you, you play tough when you play
    It's over now, I bet you still think about me

    I remember I held you so tight
    And we danced the night away
    With the moves of two wide eyed kids
    I need you so much today

    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me
    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me

    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me
    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me

    I remember we learned about love
    In the back of a Chevrolet
    No good for an old memory
    To mean so much today

    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me
    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me

    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me
    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me

    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream about me
    When you go to sleep at night
    Do you dream about me

    When you close your eyes
    Do you dream, dream about me
    When you close your big brown eyes
    Do you dream about me Writer/s: ALAN FITZGERALD, JACK BLADES, KELLY KEAGY

  • Dan from OhioEvery time I hear this song, I think about my first girlfriend, Melanie. She broke my heart in so many ways back in 1982. I always wonder if she ever does think about me? Probably not.
  • Brent from Denair, CaNight Ranger rocks!
