Halfway To Paradise

I want to be your lover

But your friend, is all I'll stay

I'm only half-way 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 leave me halfway to paradise

So near yet so far away

Bein' close to you is almost heaven, (heav-en)

But seein' you can do just so much

It hurts me so to know your heart's a treasure, (trea-sure)

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 leave me half way to paradise

So near yet so far away

So near yet so far away

So near yet so far away

So near yet so far away
