Halfway To Paradise chords

[D]I want to [G]be your [D]lover,
but your friend is all I've [A]stayed.
I'm only [D]halfway to [G]paradise.
So [D]near, yet [A]so far, a[D]way.

#2.
I long for [D]your lips [G]to kiss [D]my lips,
but just when I think they [A]may,
you lead me [D]halfway to [G]paradise,
so [D]near, yet [A]so far a[D]way...

[CHORUS]
[A]Being close to you is almost [D]heaven.
But [A]seeing you can do just so [D]much.
It [A]hurts me so to know your heart's a [D]treasure..
and that [Bm]my heart is for[E]bidden to [A]tou...[A7]ch, so...

#3.
Put your [D]sweet lips [G]close to [D]my lips,
and tell me that's where they're gonna [A]stay.
Don't lead me [D]halfway to [G]paradise,
[G]Oh, so [D]near, yet [A]so far a[D]way. (Last line x2.)
