The Closest Thing to Heaven

Lyrics

Love was tender, remember? I looked and it was in your eyes And the moment before it triggered my emotions All you had to do was call And I came runnin' Why did you have to throw it all away? Leaving me wondering what to do or say? You're the closest I've ever been to heaven I'm the furthest thing from your mind And though we make believe that we're still together I know it's just a matter of time I keep hoping we won't have to let it slip away Love was being and feeling nothing could ever take its place We would give it; we lived it; we took it to the limit Never thought I wasted our lives; or was I dreaming? Maybe I shoulda realized from the start, that it was leading to a broken heart You're the closest I've ever been to heaven I'm the furthest thing from your mind And though we make believe that we're still together I know it's just a matter of time I keep hoping you won't have to let it slip away If only you knew how much I cried, I want you stay You're the closest I've ever been to heaven I'm the furthest thing from your mind And though we make believe that we're still together I know it's just a matter of time I keep hoping you won't have to let it slip away I keep hoping you won't have to let it slip away I keep hoping we won't have to let it slip away Slip awaaay Don't let it slip away-ay-ay-ay No one can touch your love
