Morris, Gary – Heaven's Hell Without You lyrics

(Gary Morris - Eddie Setser)

I was barely twenty
She was younger still
We met in Colorado
Near a place they call Boat Hill
I was looking for California
She was looking for a ride
Our love began that day in ninteem-sixty-nine.

Chorus:
I can see so clearly now
The nights that slipped away
The times I didn't hold you
The words I didn't say
Heaven's hell without you
But they tell me I must stay
I only wanna touch you
But the clouds get in my way.

The days turned into seasons
The seasons into years
I remember the laughter
That came before the tears
We were countin' on our tomorrow's
It's so easy looking back
It ended so suddenly
The day the sky turned black.

Chorus:
I can see so clearly now
The nights that slipped away
The times I didn't hold you
The words I didn't say
Heaven's hell without you
But they tell me I must stay
I only wanna touch you
But the clouds get in my way.

The ground began to tremble
The walls began to fall
Screams rang out like trumpets
When I heard the angels call
You left me cold
You had no choice
When they tore us apart
They kept you from dying
But they couldn't find my heart.

Chorus:
I can see so clearly now
The nights that slipped away
The times I didn't hold you
The words I didn't say
Heaven's hell without you
But they tell me I must stay
I only wanna touch you
But the clouds get in my way...
