LYRICFLUENTClosest To Heaven Lyrics by Ella Langley Ella Langley
Below, you will find the lyrics for Closest To Heaven by Ella Langley.
They shut the door
Pulled the shade, told us the news
Nah, it wasn't long till the pastor came
Read a red line from Luke
Granddaddy said, I'm probably damned
From the damned things I've done
Then he grabbed grandma's hand
And in front of everyone he told her
The closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
Is somewhere with you under a big old oak tree
If it's hellfire or streets of gold
Don't know where I'm gonna go
But if one thing I know, I believe
Honey, you're the closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
Then he said, I was noddin' off, whiskey on my breath
In a pinewood back pew
Only talked to God every now and then
To thank Him for you
Guess He knew what He was doin' when He sent you my way
You were the only chance I ever had at ever bein' saved
Yeah, the closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
Is somewhere with you under a big old oak tree
If it's hellfire or streets of gold
Don't know where I'm gonna go
But if one thing I know, I believe
Honey, you're the closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
Twenty-one guns, folded flag in her lap
One headstone blank
Next to one etched in black
And it reads
The closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
Is somewhere with you
Under a big old oak tree
If it's hellfire or streets of gold
Don't know where I'm gonna go
But if one thing I know, I believe
Honey, you're the closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
Honey, you're the closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
