Closer to Heaven Lyrics


Rising and falling, lighter than air
Silently calling, no one is there
Oh, bird that is flying, so high and so free
Closer to Heaven, than you and meVoices of strangers, keep me from sleep
Guardian angels, watch over the deep
A ship that is sailing, way out to the sea
Closer to Heaven, than you and meVisions of rain fall out of blue skies
Rivers of tears fall out of dry eyes
Answer my question, tell me no lies
Is this the real world or a fool's paradise?Wind that is blowing, so wild and so free
Closer to Heaven, than you and meCloser to Heaven, longing to be
Closer to Heaven, than you and meVisions of rain fall out of blue skies
Rivers of tears fall out of dry eyes
Answer my question, tell me no lies
Is this the real world or a fool's paradise?Love that lies sleeping, wakes in the night
Secrets for keeping that won't see the light
I look to the future and I hope it will be
Closer to Heaven, than you and meCloser to Heaven, longing to be

Closer to Heaven, than you and meCloser to Heaven, than you and me

The Alan Parsons Project was a British rock group active from 1975 until 1990, founded by Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson both from London, England. The group is based on a number of regular group members such as Stuart Elliot and Ian Bairnson, complemented with varying lead vocals such as Colin Blunstone (the Zombies), Chris Rainbow and Gary Brooker (Procol Harum). The group is well known for its concept albums, which cover themes such as Edgar Allan Poe, Gaudi, and Freud.

Eric Woolfson wrote most of the music and lyrics while Alan Parsons overviewed the production process. Prior to starting his Project, Parsons worked as an engineer with names such as The Beatles(Abbey Road, the Get Back roofttop concert) and Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon, Atom Heart Mother).

Since the 1990s Alan Parsons has been performing live shows, touring all over the world, but without Eric Woolfson.
