Heaven Isn't Too Far Away
Luck Wallace Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you're standing by the door.
It′s black and white and faded,
And it's looking pretty worn.
See the factory that I worked
Silhouetted in the back.
The memories are gray but man they're really coming back.
As long as i′m the hero of this little girl
Heaven isn't too far away
Closer to it everyday
No matter what your friends might say
How I love the way you move
And the sparkle in your eyes
There′s a color deep inside them
Like blue suburban skys
When i come home late at night
And you're in bed asleep
I wrap my arms around you
So I can feel you breathe
I dont need to be a superman
As long as you will always be my biggest fan
Heaven isn′t too far away
Closer to it everyday (Ah, ah)
No matter what your friends might say
We'll find our way, yeah
Now the lights are going out,
Along the boulevard
Memories come rushing back and makes it pretty hard
I′ve got nowhere left to go
And no one really cares
I don't know what to do
But I'm never giving up on you.
Heaven isn′t too far away
Closer to it every day
Ohhhh ohhh
No matter what your friends say
I know we′re gonna find a way
(Heaven)
Whoah, oohh, ohhh
Whoah, oohh, ohhh
(Heaven)
It's not too far away
Whoah, oohh, ohhh
Yeah yeah yeah

I’ve got a picture of your house
I possess a photograph of your residence
And you’re standing by the door.
Your depiction at the entrance
It’s black and white and faded,
A grayscale and deteriorated quality
And it’s looking pretty worn.
A dilapidating condition
See the factory that I worked
The factory where I toiled
Silhouetted in the back.
Silhouette at the rear
The memories are gray but man they’re really coming back.
The reminiscences are bleak, but vividly resurfacing
I don’t need to be the king of the world
The throne of the planet is not necessary for me
As long as I’m the hero of this little girl
As long as I’m the protector of this young lady
Heaven isn't too far away
The gates of paradise aren't distant
Closer to it everyday
Every day I'm closer to it
No matter what your friends might say
Irrespective of your relationships' denotations
How I love the way you move
Admirable manner you move
And the sparkle in your eyes
The resplendence radiating from your eyes
There’s a color deep inside them
An obscurity immersed in them
Like blue suburban skies
Comparable to the suburban blue skies
When I come home late at night
Returning home late at night
And you’re in bed asleep
You are asleep in bed
I wrap my arms around you
I embrace you with my arms
So I can feel you breathe
To sense your breath
I don’t need to be a superman
Impersonating Superman isn't necessary
As long as you will always be my biggest fan
As long as you consistently remain my most dedicated admirer
No matter what your friends might say
Irrespective of your relationships' denotations
Heaven isn’t too far away
The gates of paradise aren't distant
Closer to it every day
Every day I'm closer to it
Ohhhh ohhh
Ohhhh ohhh
We'll find our way, yeah
We'll discover our path, yeah
Now the lights are going out,
Currently the lights are diminishing
Along the boulevard
Adjacent to the lane
Memories come rushing back and makes it pretty hard
Recollections abruptly return causing immense difficulty
I’ve got nowhere left to go
I have no remaining destination
No one really cares
No one displays much concern
I don’t know what to do
I'm uncertain of my actions
But I’m never giving up on you.
Although, I'm never surrendering on you
I know we’re gonna find a way
I'm confident we'll discover a way
(Heaven)
(Heaven)
Whoah, oohh, ohhh
Whoah, oohh, ohhh
It’s not too far away
The gates aren't too distant
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
