THE WATERBOYS lyrics : "Too Close To Heaven"
You are gonna see those blue skies
Bursting right through the rain
The higher you climb, the lower you fall
You got too close to heaven, that's all
Now in the morning you can cry all you want to
We'll spend the whole day weeping
Right now I want you to lay down your weary head
And let me see you sleeping
You've been walking around baby,
inflamed and ashamed,
feeling like you're one inch tall
You got too close to heaven, that's all
You're way too hard on yourself baby
You got some pretty basic things wrong
You wouldn't believe me if I told you
why I wrote you into this song
You're looking at your heart baby,
and you're calling it black,
but like Icarus and like Saul
You got.. too close to heaven, that's all
Now I know this hurt that you're feeling
I've felt these same things too
I've got spaces way down deep inside of me,
that are just the same as you
You wanna wrap your arms around your head,
turn out the lights,and roll yourself into a ball
You got too close to heaven,that's all
You got too close to heaven
You got too close to heaven
Now are you blinded by the brilliance ?
Are you dazzled by the Light ?
Why is it I see nothing but emptiness,
in your cold beaten eyes that once were bright
I know you just can't help but run,
when you hear that sweet voice call
You got too close to heaven, that's all
I walked a mile for you baby,
I walked a mile for you baby,
I walked a mile for you baby,
So won't you smile for me baby ?
Just smile for me baby
I want you smile for me baby
Smile for me baby
Come on smile for me baby
Just I want you smile for me baby
Come on smile for me baby
Smile for me baby .
