Got a picture of your house And your standing by the door It's black and white and faded And it's looking pretty worn See the factory that I worked Silhouetted in the back The memories are gray but man they're really coming back I don't need to be the king of the world As long as I'm the hero of this little girl Heaven isn't too far away Closer to it every day No matter what your friends might say... How I love the way you move And the sparkle in your eyes There's a color deep inside them Like a blue suburban sky When I come home late at night And your in bed asleep I wrap my arms around you So I can feel you breathe I don't need to be a superman As long as you will always be my biggest fan Heaven isn't too far away Closer to it every day No matter what you friends might say... We'll find a way Now the lights are going out Along the boulevard The memories come rushing back And it makes it pretty hard I've got nowhere left to go And no one really cares I don't know what to do But I'm never giving up on you Heaven isn't too far away Closer to it every day No matter what your friends say I know we're gonna find a way Heaven Heaven It's not too far away Remember the morning after my birthday, listening to this song before you jumped out of the window... |
