Don't Close Your Eyes, Tonight

John Denver

Transposer:

There's a tenderness that I feel It's very real you see I can feel your body stir so deep within Let it be an act of love tonight completely And let me ask of you one thing Don't close your eyes tonight Just look at me See how many times I cried for you Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me not just a fantasy Let it be me tonight You can lie so close to someone And still feel all alone And though I've heard you say you loved me So many times When you give me love so beautiful and tender Someone else is in your mind Don't close your eyes tonight Just look at me See how many times I cried for you Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me not just a fantasy Let it be me tonight Sorry if I cried the feelings run so deep Many is the time when I'll wake up and find I've been crying in my sleep Look me in the eye tell me what you see I'm the one who loves you I'm the one who needs you Make this one for me Don't close your eyes tonight Just look at me See how many times I cried for you Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me not just a fantasy Let it be me tonight Don't close your eyes tonight Just look at me See how many times I cried for you Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me not just a fantasy Let it be me tonight Don't close your eyes tonight Just look at me See how many times I cried for you Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me not just a fantasy Let it be me tonight...

Cette chanson évoque une connexion profonde entre deux personnes, où l'un demande à l'autre de rester éveillé et de ne pas fermer les yeux, soulignant le désir d’être vraiment vu et compris. Il exprime une vulnérabilité, partageant combien il a souffert d'un amour qui semble parfois partagé avec quelqu'un d'autre. L’instinct de l'artiste est de vouloir que cette nuit soit un moment de sincérité et de tendresse, loin des illusions. Dans un contexte romantique, ce morceau parle de l'importance de l'authenticité dans les relations, où l'on aspire à être vraiment présent l'un pour l'autre, malgré les doutes et les peurs d'être seul même à deux. C'est une invitation à embrasser l'amour véritable, sans masque ni prétention.
