State of Mind
De/Vision Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can't you feel it
It's easy to find
Heaven is a state of mind
Can't you feel it

Your eyes are too blind
Heaven is a state of mind
Your heart is yearning
But the world keeps turning

Your heart is aching
But the world's not waiting baby
Oh come with me
I can set you free

There's so much for you to be
We' II go on a trip tonight
At the speed of light
We will tumble through the tide

Your heart is burning
And the world keeps turning
Your heart is breaking
But the world's not waking

Baby oh stay with me
Come and lay with me
From here to eternity
Hold me but not so tight

It will be alright
When we step into the light
You can't see it
You can't hear it





You can't touch it
Baby you must be it
