Just This Side of Heaven
Just this side of Heaven there's a little white house.
Take a ride at the Pearly Gates: go 'bout a quarter mile south.
There's an Angel sittin' on a front porch swing.
In a cotton gown waitin' on you gettin' in.
Hallejulah, I can see the shimmer of the porch light glow.
Hallejulah, I can see her shadow in the soft halo.
Gonna take her in my arms an' hold her tight,
Love her like a devil and spend all night just this side of Heaven.
Just this side of Heaven, I was a lonely soul.
Till I found my salvation in the woman I hold.
I swear her love is spiritual:
Nothin' short of a miracle for me.
Hallejulah, I can see the shimmer of the porch light glow.
Hallejulah, I can see her shadow in the soft halo.
Gonna take her in my arms an' hold her tight,
Love her like a devil an' spend all night just this side of Heaven.
And her hair falls down like a gentle rain,
Makin' music, gonna tell her, of callin' my name.
Hey, yeah.
Hallejulah, I can see the shimmer of the porch light glow.
Hallejulah, I can see her shadow in the soft halo.
Gonna take her in my arms an' hold her tight.
Love her like a devil an' spend all night just this side of Heaven.
Just this side of Heaven.
Just this side of Heaven.
Take a ride at the Pearly Gates: go 'bout a quarter mile south.
There's an Angel sittin' on a front porch swing.
In a cotton gown waitin' on you gettin' in.
Hallejulah, I can see the shimmer of the porch light glow.
Hallejulah, I can see her shadow in the soft halo.
Gonna take her in my arms an' hold her tight,
Love her like a devil and spend all night just this side of Heaven.
Just this side of Heaven, I was a lonely soul.
Till I found my salvation in the woman I hold.
I swear her love is spiritual:
Nothin' short of a miracle for me.
Hallejulah, I can see the shimmer of the porch light glow.
Hallejulah, I can see her shadow in the soft halo.
Gonna take her in my arms an' hold her tight,
Love her like a devil an' spend all night just this side of Heaven.
And her hair falls down like a gentle rain,
Makin' music, gonna tell her, of callin' my name.
Hey, yeah.
Hallejulah, I can see the shimmer of the porch light glow.
Hallejulah, I can see her shadow in the soft halo.
Gonna take her in my arms an' hold her tight.
Love her like a devil an' spend all night just this side of Heaven.
Just this side of Heaven.
Just this side of Heaven.
