Closer to heaven

I've been searching for so long
For something I couldn't find
Choices I made were so wrong
Until you came into my life
No matter who I held
There was an emptiness there
Now I know God heard my prayers

When you say my name
It's like hearing angels sing
When I feel your touch
It sets my spirit free
When you're in my arms
The world seems so far away
Oh, I believe you've taken me
To a place
Closer to heaven

Baby when I see you smile
I forget the tears I've cried
Everything I've ever lost
I've found in your eyes
You give your heart
With no conditions
And you take love to another dimension

When you say my name
It's like hearing angels sing
When I feel your touch
It sets my spirit free
When you're in my arms
The world seems so far away
Oh, I believe you've taken me
To a place
Closer to heaven

When you say my name
It's like hearing angels sing
When I feel your touch
It sets my spirit free
When you're in my arms
The world seems so far away
Oh, I believe you've taken me
To a place
Closer to heaven
Closer to heaven...
