All your trouble will be over, so will your painnyou are gonna see those blue skies bursting right through the rainnThe higher you climb, the lower you fallnYou got too close to heaven, that's allnnNow in the morning you can cry all you want tonWe'll spend the whole day weepingnRight now I want you to lay down your weary headnand let me see you sleepingnYou've been walking around baby, inflamed and ashamednfeeling like you're one inch tallnYou got too close to heaven, that's allnnYou're way too hard on yourself babynYou got some pretty basic things wrongnYou wouldn't believe me if I told you why I wrote you into this songnYou're looking at your heart baby, and you're calling it blacknBut like Icarus and like SaulnYou got too close to heaven, that's allnnNow I know this hurt you're feeling nI've felt these same things toonI've got spaces way down deep inside of me that are just the same as younYou want to wrap your arms around your head, turn out the lights nAnd roll yourself into a ballnYou got too close to heaven, that's allnnAre you blinded by the brilliance?nAre you dazzled by the Light?nWhy is it I see nothing but emptiness in your tired beaten eyesnThat once were brightnI know you just can't help but run when you hear that sweet voice callnYou got too close to heaven, that's allnnI walked a mile for you babynSo won't you smile for me baby?
