Just Like Heaven

The Cure · Greatest Hits [2001]

'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 kissed her head

And dreamed of all the different ways

I had to make her glow

'Why are you so far away?' she said

'Why 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

Dancing in the deepest oceans

Twisting 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 her 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

Just like heaven
