But your friend is all I stay
Don't leave me halfway to paradise
So near yet so far away
I want your sweet lips next to my lips
But just when I think they may
You leave me halfway to paradise
So near yet so far away
Oh, being close to you is almost heaven
For I still can only so much
It hurts me some, to me your heart's a treasure
That my heart is willing to touch
So put your sweet lips next to my lips
And tell me that's where they'll stay
Don't leave me halfway to paradise
So near yet so far, so near yet so far
So near yet so far away
I want to be your lover But your friend is all I stay Don't leave me halfway to paradise So near yet so far away I want your sweet lips next to my lips But just when I think they may You leave me halfway to paradise So near yet so far away Oh, being close to you is almost heaven For I still can only so much It hurts me some, to me your heart's a treasure That my heart is willing to touch So put your sweet lips next to my lips And tell me that's where they'll stay Don't leave me halfway to paradise So near yet so far, so near yet so far So near yet so far away Explain Request ×
