Heaven Is a Bedroom

English translation

And I remember how the pillows felt like clouds

Or was it the other way around?

How your neighbor came in to yell at you

When the party got too loud

When I snuck into your living room and I wished that you would follow

At first, you didn't, but then you did

And it was already tomorrow

Then you told me how you had an uncle

Who played the villain in those movies

And how he died and then you cried

And you apologized profusely

I was nervous that this was as good as I could ever feel

And I was right

I confess to thinking sex was my salvation

When really, they just start with the letter S

You'll forgive me for thinking heaven was her bedroom

It's as close as I would ever get

It's as close as I would ever get

And I'll always remember picking up my favorite records in your apartment

Kissing you before you left me for New York

Weren't you a princess or an heiress or just the daughter of a rich man?

In this land of constant sunshine I thought you'd never have to work

New York City's cold and when you love someone, you should hold on to them so tightly

'Til you crush them

Or they wriggle from your grasp

You don't just stand there and say nothing

But at least I learned my lesson

And I confess to thinking sex was my salvation

When really, they just start with the letter S

You'll forgive me for thinking heaven was her bedroom

It's as close as I would ever get

It's as close as I would ever get

If I ever make it to New York

Like I said that I would

Would it do me any good?

If I ever make it to New York

Like I told you on the phone

And I confess to thinking sex was my salvation

When really, they just start with the letter S

You'll forgive me for thinking heaven was her bedroom

It's as close as I would ever get

It's as close as I would ever get

It's as close as I would ever get

It's as close as I would ever get

It's as close as I would ever get

It's as close as I would ever get
