ERIC CLAPTON LYRICS: Heaven Is One Step Away

by Eric Clapton

We searched all through the night.
I couldn't find it; you couldn't find it.
I knew something wasn't right.
I couldn't find it; you couldn't find it.

  And they say heaven is one step away.
  Heaven is one step away.

And then there came the dawn:
I couldn't find it; you couldn't find it.
I just had to carry on.
I couldn't find it; you couldn't find it.

  Chorus

We didn't leave till a quarter to three.
All your friends, they were laughing at me.
I don't get it, I don't understand;
Who is that man holding your hand?

  First Verse

  Chorus

Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
