Lyrics
I am the boy you always loved
You dreamed of me
You watched me smile and sing
But no love's enough
To bring it back
You want it all, and you're on your knees
But I cast these shadows
Now I'm a ghost
I drift and float
I go unseen
But you, you look and
See me move
Because when I shine
The light's for you
But no one's gonna see that look I get
Like when we met
Those bedroom eyes
And the smile you wear, a crescent moon
It draws me back
Right down to you
From heaven to you
From heaven to you
(instrument)
When life was body there was a pull
A gravity
That we could feel
Unlike the others we heard the things
We thought from miles
From miles away
The moment that I set my eyes on you
Was when I knew
We'd never bleed the same
Our hands were locked
Our lips were glued
Until the day that mine turned blue
But still, from somewhere else I talk to you
You hear me sing
You hum along
We wrote this song, a somber tune
Now verses fade to interlude
From heaven to you
From heaven to you
