Part I

[Verse 1]

In between heaven and cloud 9

There we lie, her and I

Her kisses as soft as her eyes

There's nothin' to fight about in the sky

So why am I tryna 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 missin' me while I look down from up above

And I know right here I would not be if she knew that I was

[Chorus]

Only human

Less than perfect

See, this is right where I wanna be

But she deserves so much more than me

'Cause I'm only human

[Verse 2]

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 chasin' amazin' grace while she waits for him by his throne

Someone else is out there lovin' me while she wishes she could

I know she'd be so much better off if I just left her for good

[Chorus]

But I'm human

Oh-oh, oh-oh, less than perfect

See, this is right where I wanna be

But she deserves so much more than me

'Cause I'm only human

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Instrumental Break]

Part II

[Chorus]

Riskin' 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

Riskin' it all for a floating, fleeting feeling

[Verse]

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

[Chorus]

Riskin' 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

Riskin' it all for a floating, fleeting feeling
