Nearer Than Heaven Lyrics by The Delays

Faded Seaside Glamour

2004

[Chorus 1]
You are nearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside
That summer's on the way
[Verse 1]
Bullet took it easy, dollar lit the room
Monsters making the evening news
Packin' up a round trip, I get in the way
[Chorus 1]
Now I know that you are nearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside
That summer's on the way
[Verse 2]
We could talk forever
Nothing would get done
Stake your claim on the morning sun
I get in the way
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh
[Chorus 2]
Now I see that you are clearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside
That summer's on the way, yeah yeah
[Instrumental Outro]
