So close, yet so far from paradise
(Riff 1) C
I hold, you in my arms, in paradise
Em Am
Is mine, then you slip away
F G7 C Em
Like a child at play, and here am I
F G7 (Riff 1)
So close, yet so far from paradise
When you, are close to me, it's paradise
We kiss, oh my love, paradise
Is mine, then suddenly you're gone from me
Like a floating star, I see, and here am I
F G7 C C7
So close, yet so far from paradise
F E7
I reach out for you, but each time I do
Am D9
I always find you gone
Am F
I know love is new, I'll take care of you
D7 G9
In my arms is where you belong
Just, a step away, are we from paradise
Take my hand, come away, to paradise
My love, I want you close to me
I need you desperately, oh here am I
Waiting for you
Here am I
Praying for you
Here am I, so close, yet so far from paradise
