The Cure - "Just Like Heaven"

One of those songs that always brings a smile to my face. cloud9 This is also my favorite MTV era.



"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

It was the song that made me a fan at age 11. They never bettered this song for a perfect pop single.

It's a definite 10. The Cure just have lots of 10s. "Just Like Heaven" would probably rank in the 30-50 range of Cure songs for me.

Catch which is in the same vein as Just Like Heaven I think is a much better song.
