Closest Thing To Heaven

28 days of rain

Flashfloods in Feburary

Back in our boats again

Bathwater and the baby

What am I gonna do?

There's been a lot of drinking

Looking at ghosts of you

While all the world is sinking

Ten thousand miles into the atmosphere

My body shakes, is there a welcome here?



Closest thing to heaven

How do you do it?

Closest thing to heaven, to heaven



Throw your arms 'round the world

Make love your destination

Here we go, boys and girls

Act like a generation

Give me that ball and chain

By now it must be hurting

Dragging your feet again

Just like a beast of burden

When one and one and one make two

I know I'm high because I've captured you

Yeah



Closest thing to heaven

Yes, you

Closest thing to heaven, to heaven



Look the world right in the eye

Eat the countries that are making millions

Sweet as homemade apple pie

Save the crumbs for all the starving millions



Closest thing to heaven

Closest thing to heaven

How do you do it?

Closest thing to heaven

Hey

Closest thing to heaven
