Halfway To Paradise |
| I want to be your lover |
| But your friend is all I’ve stayed |
| I’m only halfway to paradise |
| So near, yet so far away |
| I long for your lips to kiss my lips |
| But just when I think they may |
| You lead me halfway to paradise |
| So near, yet so far away, mmm |
| Bein' close to you is almost heaven (heaven) |
| But seein' you can do just so much |
| It hurts me so to know your heart’s a treasure (treasure) |
| And that my heart is forbidden to touch, so |
| Put your sweet lips close to my lips |
| And tell me that’s where they’re gonna stay |
| Don’t lead me halfway to paradise |
| Mmm, so near, yet so far away |
| Oh, oh, oh so near, yet so far away |
| Mmm, so near, yet so far away |
