Halfway to Paradise

I want to be your lover

But your friend is all I'll stayed

You lead me halfway to Paradise

Mm-mm, so near, yet so far away

I long for your lips to kiss my lips

And just when I think they may

You lead me halfway to Paradise

Mm-mm, so near, yet so far away

Bein' close to you is almost Heaven

But seein' you can do just so much

It hurts me so to know your heart's a treasure

And I know 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 lead me halfway to Paradise

Mm-mm, so near, yet so far away

Oh-oh, so near, yet so far away

Mm-mm, so near, yet so far away

Oh-oh, so near
