Content
This song is a country ballad, in which the song's male narrator tells his lover that he "want[s] to make [her] close [her] eyes" (i.e., he wants to feel sexual arousal to the point that she closes her eyes to savor it).
Bentley said of the song, "One of the best compliments I can get is when a guy comes up to me and says that one of my songs helped him out at home...maybe helped him smooth something over with his girlfriend or wife. That's the goal with this one."
Critical reception
Andrew Lacy of Engine 145 gave the song a "thumbs down" rating, criticizing it for "being boring and forgettable." He also went on to say that “[h]ere, [Bentley] sound[ed] as though co-producer Brett Beavers pulled him out of bed early in the morning, put a microphone in front of him, and told him to make it quick because Luke Bryan need[ed] to use the studio in 20 minutes."
Music video
The music video was directed by Chris Hicky and premiered in late 2009.
Chart performance
"I Wanna Make You Close Your Eyes" debuted at number 91 on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number 52. On the week of January 26 2010, it peaked at number 2 on the country chart, making it the first single from this album to miss the top spot.
