A                                E           A
I want to be your lover  but your friend is all I've stayed
         A          D           A         E  A
I'm only halfway to paradise  so near, yet so far away
A                                                       E
I long for your lips to kiss my lips but just when I think they may
            A               D               A           E      A
You lead me halfway to paradise, oh oh oh, so near, yet so far away

(BRIDGE)
E                                          A   E(7)  A
Being close to you is almost heaven but seeing you can do just so much
    E (7)                                A
It hurts me so to know your heart's a treasure
  A           D                      Bm          E
That my heart    is forbidden to tou - ch, so . . .

         A                                           E
Put your sweet lips close to my lips and tell me that's where they're gonna stay
                   A                        D                    A   E   A
 Don't lead me halfway, halfway to paradise hm hm so near, yet so far away . .
                   A                        D                A    E    A
 Don't lead me halfway to paradise hm hm so near, yet so far away
A                      E      A
Oh, uh, oh so near, yet so far away . . .
A                       E      A
Oh oh oh so near, yet so far away

FIN!
