just like heaven


show me how you do the trick
the one that makes me scream - he said
the one that makes me laugh - he said
and threw his arms around my neck
show me how you do it and I promise you
I promise that I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you
spinning on a dizzy edge
I kissed his face and I kissed his head
and dreamed of all the different ways I had to make him glow
why are u so far away? - he said
why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
that I'm in love with you - you
soft and only you
lost and lonely you
strange as angels -
dancing in the deepest oceans

twisting in the water - you're just like a dream
you're just like a dream
daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
and moving my lips to breathe his name
I opened up my eyes ~ I found myself alone, alone
alone - above the raging sea -
that stole the only boy I loved and drowned him deep inside of me
you, soft and only you
lost and lonely you
just like heaven
