So Close To Heaven

(álbum: Memphis Portrait - 1970)

Lightning flashed, thunder roared
And all the future that I counted on
In a moment it had come and gone
By the time I could turn around
You were gone and I was all alone
Sort of like the comet beyond the star
You brought me so close to heaven
I was so high off of the ground
So close to heaven
And I think I may never come down

Nature laughed, I discovered you
Someone I could tell my troubles to
Guess I learned some thing I never knew
You brought me so close to heaven
I was so high off of the ground
So close, so close
And I think I may never come down
So close to heaven
So high off of the ground
So close to heaven...
