This Close To Heaven Lyrics - The Rembrandts

Sittin' on the porch as the rain comes down 

I'm a mixed up mind in a mixed up town 

Without you, uh, huh 

Carryin' a torch for the one I love 

It's a hell on earth with no chance for love 

Without you, uh, huh 

This close to Heaven, I was this close to Heaven 

The band plays on but the tune's all wrong 

I've been up all night, I've been down too long 

Without you, uh, huh 

A sentimental fool with a schoolboy drool 

There ain't nothin' right, there ain't nothin' cool 

Without you, uh, huh 

This close to Heaven, I was this close to Heaven 

I was this close to Heaven, yeah, I was this close to Heaven 

My heart won't slow down, no my heart 

(Won't slow down) 

This close to Heaven, I was this close to Heaven 

I was this close to Heaven, yeah, I was this close to Heaven 

My heart won't slow down, my heart won't slow down 

My heart won't slow down, no, my heart won't slow down
