lyrics

ALMOST HEAVEN
It was heaven
when I saw you
when I looked into your eyes

I had wandered
mostly lonely
so it came as a surprise

it must have been the angels
who decided
it must have been our God
and we were guided

it was heaven
us together
when you kissed me
and I kissed you

we were dancing
stars around us
we were dancing and you felt it too

it must have been the angels
who decided
it must have been our God
and we were guided

then we fell
unto the earth and
we were tumbling from the skies above

we were wounded
we were hurt and
how to get back we did not know

we’re go go going going home
we know know know by now where to go

Almost heaven
when I see you
when I look into your eyes
