Karaoké Halfway to Paradise Ben E. King & Mark Knopfler

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 yet so far away

Bein' close to you is almost heaven

But seein' you can do oh, so much

It hurts me so to know your heart's a treasure

And that my heart is forbidden to touch

Put your sweet lips next to my lips

Tell me that's where they'll stay

I'm only halfway to paradise

So near yet so far away

So near yet so far away

So near yet so far away
