Tears for Fears - Closest Thing to Heaven
Twenty-eight days of rain
Flash floods in February
Back in our boats again
Bathwater and the baby
What am I gonna do
There’s been a lot of drinking
Looking at ghosts of you
While all the world is sinking
Ten thousand miles into the atmosphere
My body shakes
Is there a welcome here?
Closest thing to heaven
How do you do it?
Closest thing to heaven
Throw your arms round the world
Make love your destination
Here we go boys and girls
Act like a generation
Give me that ball and chain
By now it must be hurting
Blacken your feet again
Just like a beast of burden
When one and one and one make two
I know I’m high
Because I’ve captured you
Closest thing to heaven
Yeah it’s you
Closest thing to heaven
Look the world right in the eye
In the countries that are making billions
Sweet as homemade apple pie
Save the crumbs for all the starving millions
Closest thing to heaven
