Jewel - So Close To Heaven

Lyrics :
I was just a child when you took my hand
We set the whole damn world on fire
You showed me what it was to be loved by a man

But one day the axe just fell
And the whole world got shot all to hell
There's a hole in my heart

We were so, so close to heaven
We were almost as good, as good as it gets
And you were almost an angel
That was almost heaven-sent
So close to heaven, so close

Our love was crazy and wild
Tender and mild, slow and strong
Tonight I'll set on fire as noble as a storm
The lightning fell from your eyes
Suddenly, there was no goodbye
There's a hole in my heart

We were so, so close to heaven
We were almost as good, as good as it gets
And you were almost an angel
That was almost heaven-sent
So close to heaven, so close

Wax wings that flew too close to the sun
But wasn't it so fun to fly
It's far better to love and to lose
Than never to love than to die

Oh, we were so, so close to heaven
We were almost, almost, almost as good as it gets
And you were almost an angel
That was almost heaven-sent
So close to heaven,
So close to heaven,
So close to heaven

Surely there's a better copy of this somewhere. It a pretty song but it's hard to listen to it with a single half inch speaker. Thanks for your effort, though.

[RayRoark2009]

What a beautiful singer and she has a beautiful voice.

[RaibDarkin]

Wow! How can something sound so good even with 3rd party sound? It's almost irrational.

Then again, how can somebody so good for so long still amaze me?

[ah914]

Wow....this song is so beautiful.

[waltzingduck]

Ouch. Me and him were so close...

[XXXIIIRPM]

But wasn't it so fun to fly

[lopert]

I understan your point. I feel sort of similar

[GaynorHater4Life]

We all love Jewel ;)

[Zotana1]

[yuewenb]

They say it's better to have loved and lost,

than to never have loved at all.

Well I find it hard to believe that its true,

cause how can a heart and mind miss and yearn for something it never knew?

Wheres my peace oh lord, wheres my peace.
