Prince
Heaven Must Be Near
Falling water echoes like the rain on a hallow day
If I could bust these invisible walls I might be ok
Heaven must be near
Clap your hands and stomp your feet
CHORUS:
Heaven must be near
Heaven must be near
Heaven must be near
Clap your hands and stomp your feet {repeat 2x}
I sit my nights moongazing pulling stars from the sky
And building my dreams upon their very light
I am a dweller among the clouds
If you can catch my spirit, then you can have me
I flow with the divine winds
If you can catch my thoughts
Then together we can fly away free
(Clap your hands and stomp your feet)
CHORUS
I must be in love I feel all willowy inside
Heaven must be near because sacred music rings from my heart tonight (clap your hands and stomp your feet)
I sit my nights fishing pulling stars from above (clap your hands)
Growing closer each day to this thing called love (and stomp your feet)
A starry night and I’m a millionaire and
I’d give them all to you just to know that you care
CHORUS
(Clap your hands and stomp your feet)
(And stomp your feet)
Heaven must be near (and stomp your feet)
When will I wake up from this dream I hear you calling me (hit it!)
Night falls closer to you and I’m left begging to see
Is there comfort in the shadows or just shelter from the doubt?
Bitterness gathers like dust while I find the way out
Bitterness gathers like dust while the hands of time weather
Weary of the cold I seek a shelter
(Hit it!) Running from you to you growing wiser with each step I take
I’m hopeless in most peculiar kind of way
{repeat chorus in BG} Because you see, I’m finding it harder to say all there is to say
And it’s a battle either way I’ll find a way to brave
If you could hear all I’ve said
All the conversations that are in my head
(Clap your hands and stomp your feet) Just begging you to understand
(Clap your hands and stomp your feet) Begging you to hear
(Clap your hands and stomp your feet) Begging you to see that the fall for me is near
Bitterness gathers like dust
CHORUS {repeat in BG till end}
Is there comfort in the shadows or just shelter from the doubt?
Bitterness gathers like dust while I find the way out
Bitterness gathers like dust while the hands of time weather
Weary of the cold I seek a shelter
Running from you to you growing wiser with each step I take
I’m hopeless in most peculiar kind of way
Because you see, I’m finding it harder to say all there is to say
And it’s a battle either way I’ll find a way to brave
While I find a way out
Bitterness gathers like dust while the hands of time weather
Don’t know…will you be there?
