Sparks - Just Got Back From Heaven Lyrics

(Ron & Russell Mael)

All I get is quiet
Laughing friends won't buy it
I've been known to tell them white lies
But this time I swear it's the truth, oh, oh
I just got back from heaven

I can see their faces
As I mention places
Places that I've overdescribed
But this time I swear it's the truth, oh, oh
I just got back from heaven

Heaven isn't so far away
You walk through the door
And you're light years away
Someone looks right into your eyes
And you feel the magic that you can't deny
And you sway
All through the night
If you stay
All through the night
Look at the shape I'm in
I just got back from heaven

Searching for some glory
People make up stories
One too many drinks at the bar
But this time I swear it's the truth, oh, oh
I just got back from heaven

Heaven isn't so far away
You walk through the door
And you're light years away
Someone looks right into your eyes
And you feel the magic that you can't deny
And you sway
All through the night
If you stay
All through the night
Look at the shape I'm in
I just got back from heaven

Any destination
Makes a great vacation
This is something greater by far
This time I swear it's the truth, oh, oh
I just got back from heaven
