Heaven Is a Bedroom

And I remember how the pillows felt like clouds Or was it the other way around? How your neighbor came in to yell at you When the party got too loud When I snuck into your living room and I wished that you would follow At first you didn't, but then you did And it was already tomorrow Then you told me how you had an uncle Who played the villain in those movies And how he died and then you cried And you apologized profusely I was nervous that this was as good as I could ever feel And I was right I confess to thinking sex was my salvation When really, they just start with the letter S You'll forgive me for thinking heaven was her bedroom It's as close as I would ever get It's as close as I would ever get And I'll always remember picking up my favorite records in your apartment Kissing you before you left me for New York Weren't you a princess or an heiress or just the daughter of a rich man? In this land who calls you sunshine, so that you never have to work New York City's cold and when you love someone, you should hold on to them so tightly Until you crush them Or they wriggle from your grasp You don't just stand there and say nothing But at least I learned my lesson And I confess to thinking sex was my salvation When really, they just start with the letter S You'll forgive me for thinking heaven was her bedroom It's as close as I would ever get It's as close as I would ever get If I ever make it to New York Like I said that I would Would it do me any good? If I ever make it to New York Like I told you on the phone And I confess to thinking sex was my salvation When really, they just start with the letter S You'll forgive me for thinking heaven was her bedroom It's as close as I would ever get It's as close as I would ever get It's as close as I would ever get It's as close as I would ever get It's as close as I would ever get It's as close as I would ever get
