Just Like Heaven
Elizabeth Gillies Lyrics

Show me how you do that trick
She wants him to show her how he can make her react to his actions, like a magical trick.

The one that makes me scream" she said
She wants him to do the trick that will make her scream in excitement.

"The one that makes me laugh" she said
She also wants him to do the trick that will make her laugh in joy.

And threw her arms around my neck
She shows her affection by embracing him and holding him close.

"Show me how you do it
She wants to see him do the trick again, and she makes a promise if he can impress her.

And I promise you I promise that
She promises to him if he can show her the trick that she will run away with him.

I'll run away with you
She will escape with him to somewhere else.

Spinning on that dizzy edge
He is feeling exhilarated yet slightly unstable.

I kissed her face and kissed her head
He shows her love and affection by giving her gentle kisses.

And dreamed of all the different ways I had
He dreams of being with her in various ways.

To make her glow
He wants to make her happy and feel special.

"Why are you so far away?" she said
She is wondering why he is distant from her.

"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
She shares her deep feelings with him, hoping he feels the same way.

That I'm in love with you"
She is expressing her love for him.

You
He is addressing the person he loves.

Soft and only
He describes her as gentle and unique.

Lost and lonely
He sees her as someone who is searching for something she can't find.

You
He continues to address the person he loves.

Strange as angels
He describes her as mysterious and heavenly.

Dancing in the deepest oceans
She is moving gracefully like the ocean waves.

Twisting in the water
She is moving in water with fluid motions.

You're just like a dream
He can't believe how perfect she seems, like something out of a dream.

Daylight licked me into shape
He is describing the process of waking up and being energized by the morning light.

I must have been asleep for days
He is feeling disoriented from sleeping for an extended period.

And moving lips to breathe her name
He whispers her name as he wakes up from dreaming about her.

I opened up my eyes
He finally wakes up fully and can see clearly.

And found myself alone alone
He realizes that he is alone without the one he loves.

Alone above a raging sea
He feels isolated and helpless above an aggressive body of water.

That stole the only girl I loved
The sea took the one he loves away from him.

And drowned her deep inside of me
He feels consumed with grief and sadness at losing her.

Just like heaven
He compares the one he loves to something heavenly and perfect.
