Halfway To Paradise

Halfway To Paradise - Billy Fury

I want to be your lover

But your friend is all I've stayed

I'm only halfway to paradise

So near yet so far away

I long for your lips to kiss my lips

But just when I think they may

You lead me halfway to paradise

So near

So near yet so far away mm

Being close to you

Is almost heaven

But seeing you can do just so much

It hurts me so to know

Your heart's a treasure

And that my heart is forbidden to touch so

Put your sweet lips close to my lips

And tell me that's where they're gonna stay

Don't lead me halfway to paradise

So near

So near yet so far away

Oh so near so near yet so far away
