Lyrics

CLOSER TO HEAVEN
Music & Lyrics by James Webb
© 2014 Son Of Jack WAM

Heaven is to stand beside the ocean,
The wondrous breaching of a whale.
To walk a beach and climb the headland,
Like some Pacific castaway.

Heaven is to touch the peaks and ridges,
Where ancient forest meets the hazy blue

But as high as I may be,
Closer to heaven is sharing it with you.

Not sure if there’s a God somewhere,
And maybe love’s too good to be true.
But if the North Coast is truly paradise,
Then closer to heaven is sharing it with you.

But if the North Coast is truly paradise,
Then closer to heaven is sharing it with you.
