Zac Brown Band - Closer To Heaven lyrics

I've built an empire On a beach of shifting sand To see the walls go down so fast I thought it was the end Thought I was close to living But never close to free I was looking for a high I could not find Until you came down to me Oh, what a blessing For a heart that's always drifting I was lost for so long Thought that part of me was gone And the love that you were giving Was the something I was missing So goodbye to sad songs and Hello to moving on Now the hell that I was livin' is through I'm closer to Heaven when I'm with you I want to be a little closer Come a little bit closer, baby I've jumped in the fire To watch the flames turn blue There's just something in your smile that drives me wild And makes me come back to you When I sail my ship on the sea of loneliness You're the lighthouse that shows me where love is Oh, what a blessing For a heart that's always drifting I was lost for so long Thought that part of me was gone And the love that you were giving Was the something I was missing So goodbye to sad songs and Hello to moving on Now the hell that I was livin' is through I'm closer to Heaven Closer to Heaven when I'm with you As a sinner and a saint and my own worst enemy You make it easy to be the man I want to be Oh Oh, what a blessing For a heart that's always drifting I was lost for so long Thought that part of me was gone And the love that you were giving Was the something I was missing So goodbye to sad songs And hello to moving on Now the hell that I was livin' is through I'm closer to Heaven Closer to Heaven when I'm with you I want to be a little closer Come a little bit closer, baby
