In between heaven and "cloud nine"
There we lie, her and I
Her kisses as soft as her eyes
There's nothing to fight about in the sky
So why am I trying to pull this angel
down from heaven where she belongs?
I wish I could stay here forever
but I gotta go back home
Someone else is out there missing me
while I look down from up above
And I know right here
I would not be if she knew that I was
Only human
Less than perfect
See, this is right where I want to be
But she deserves so much more than me
'Cause I'm only human
Back in the world I call my own
I'm always gone and she's alone
We live next to pain and misery
But she believes we're meant to be
I just can't find the words to tell her
that the king she calls her own
Is out chasing amazing grace
while she waits for him by his throne
Someone else is out there loving me
while she wishes she could
I know she'd be so much better off
if I just left her for good
But I'm human
Less than perfect
See, this is right where I want to be
But she deserves so much more than me
'Cause I'm only human
Risking it all for a floating, fleeting feeling
Can't climb the wall with my energy depleting
Know what you'll say
but the words ain't so appealing
Risking it all for a floating, fleeting feeling
If I don't move I'll never heal
Hoping my heart can take the real pain
Can't avoid the choices I've made
But if I stayed, if I stayed I would be
Risking it all for a floating, fleeting feeling
Can't climb the wall with my energy depleting
Know what you'll say
but the words ain't so appealing
Risking it all for a floating, fleeting feeling
