Just Like Heaven

The Cure

The Cure

“Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream”, she said”

The one that makes me laugh”, she said
And threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you, I promise that
I’ll run away with you
I’ll run away with you
Spinning on that dizzy edge
Kissed her face and kissed her head
Dreamed of all the different ways
I had to make her glow
“Why are you so far away?”, she said
“Why won’t you ever know that I’m in love with you
That I’m in love with you?”
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You’re just like a dream
You’re just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must’ve been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone, alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me
You
Soft and lonely
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

Madame Joy

Van Morrison

All the men would turn their head
When she walked down the street
Clothes are fine and hair that shine
Smiling oh so sweet,
Smiling oh so sweet

Got a taste of all religion
Comes on with the new
In her hair a yellow ribbon
And she’s decked out all in blue
Oh yes in, decked out all in blue

Steppin’ lightly, steppin’ brightly
With her books in hand
Going to the university to teach them
Help them understand
And are helping ’em understand

And all the kids would love to see her
Follow in her steps
And tell her stories and adore her
Climb in through the fence
Climb in through the fence

Here she comes walking
Here she comes talking
I do believe it’s Madame Joy
Walking past that old street corner
And she’s looking for her boy
Oh yes she is, looking for her boy

Steppin’ lightly, steppin’ brightly
With her books in hand
Going to the university to teach them
Help them understand
Yeah, help them understand

I was looking at the way she moved me
And I was seeing every side
Tell me, can I learn the language
Have you got the mind?
Have you got the mind?

Here she comes walking
Here she comes talking
I do believe it’s Madame Joy
She’s walking by that old street corner
And she’s looking for her boy
Oh yes looking for her boy

And all the men would turn their head
When she walked down the street
Clothes refined and hair that shine
And smiling oh so sweet,
Oh yes, she’s smiling oh so sweet

And all the men would turn their head around
When that woman walked down the street
