Just Like Heaven

Show me, show me,

Show me how you do that trick.
The one that makes me scream, she said.
The one that makes me laugh, she said.
And threw her arms around my neck.
Show me how you do it,
And I promise you, I promise that
I'll run away with you.
I'll run away with you.

Spinning on that dizzy edge,
I kissed her face and I kissed her head,
And dreamed of all the different ways
I had to make her mine.
Why are you so far away, she said.
And won't you ever know
That I'm in love with you.
That I'm in love with you.

You,
Soft and only
You,
Lost and lonely,
You,
Strange as angels,
spinning in the deepest ocean
dancing in the water
You're just like a dream.
Just like a dream.

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days,
And moving lips to breathe your name
I opened up my eyes.
I found myself alone, alone,
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved,
And drowned her deep inside of me.

You,
Soft and only
You,
Lost and lonely,
You,
Are just like Heaven.
