Lyrics:
There's an angel in the window
On a West Virginia church door swinging open
And he's pointing to the exit sign
Said, "You'll never walk on water
If you wait until the river's frozen over"
In the Shenandoah summer

Well, it was almost heaven
Choirs singing in robes of white
Almost heaven
Lovers laying side by side but

When we reach forever
Will there be a place where you and I may find home?

So I keep a candle burning
And I pray to see that Saint I knew for certain
But it's just my own reflection now
And that silhouette in the window
Is the shape of someone I don't quite remember
Dancing in the fire

Well, it was almost heaven
Choirs singing in robes of white
Almost heaven
Lovers laying side by side but

When we reach forever
Will there be a place where you and I may find home?
In heaven

I'll make a room for you
If you stay, you'll rise on me now
Lover, you can lean on me
Love, I can lift you higher
Say I'm making a room for you
Will you keep your eyes on me now?
Lover, lean on me
Love, I can lift you higher
Oh, I can lift you higher, oh

And it was almost heaven
(Choirs singing in robes of white)
Oh, it was almost heaven
(Lovers laying side by side but)

Oh, when we reach forever
Will there be a place where you and I may find home?
In heaven
Make our home in heaven

[deepwaters]

Is anyone else left stunned, and wanting to hug him, and hand him a beer? Damn he knows how to reach into the heart and express the confusion, ironies and paradoxes of the human condition.

[darkleft]

it gives me nostalgia to a relationship I've never experienced

This song written by Jerimiah Lloyd Harmon
He played this song to the judges when he auditioned for American idols and i followed and supported him since then and when Isak post the title of the song on social media and the first time i saw it. It just reminded me of Jerimaih’song that i have heard and love called Almost heaven and A few minutes ago when i heard the first few seconds of the intro then i just knew that it is the same song and i am so happy cuz i love this song so so much and i love both versions of this song and Thank you so much for sharing this and singing this for us!! 🙏😍

[biohazard]

Just so everybody knows, this song was originally performed and written by Jeremiah Lloyd Harmon, and his version is as equally beautiful as Isak's!

[ignaciomartinez]

This waiting is killing me slowly. At this point, tomorrow i will be almost (in) heaven.

[treidkr]

The day I discovered Isak’s music my life got better. Obsessed with his voice, it’s so beautifully haunting

[evar]

Jeremiah Lloyd Harmon deserves recognition for this song.

[rebeccasmith]

Im from a small town in West Virginia and this is almost heaven. I have goosebumps. Ur voice is absolutely beautiful.

[catedoge]

If you're reading this, you have an elite taste in music. And I know you must be in pain too. Keep the candle burning. Stay strong. :)

[a.e.]

It gives me "call me by your name" vibes

[TheJoeGee]

My first love very definitely followed the path of this video. There was so much pain when it didn't work I couldn't process it. I just wanted to just disappear under the waves myself.

Thirty years later I find this extraordinary video and song. There are still tears, but the pain has been dulled by the opiate of thousands of days. What remains are the bittersweet memories, which this sublime work of art perfectly encapsulates.

Young sir, your work will continue, and you'll shine brightly for decades long beyond my time. Please keep plucking at the heart strings of the admirers sure to follow me.

Peace and love. ❤❤❤

[Dermacrosis]

"How can you be in love if you don't know what love is". The truest thing ever said. It takes time to learn that lesson and sadly that means also going through abusive relationships.

[valitothv]

he has become my favorite artist in such a short time

[YvonneBurggraaf-]

When you look into the sun, without sunglasses ofcourse!, you feel the power come inside you. And then you know it is given to you, that higher power. And you realize that you cannot give it away anymore. You feel that other people take it away from you, it's called draining your energy. So look into the sun, feel your power grow and don't ever give it away again.

[carlstpeter]

years later and I still come back to this video.. @ 2:25 there is a look you give after the kiss that says so much and tells a story so close to my own.. and I fall in love with you without simply through the emotion of it all

[nikiulcova]

i´m so excited because i found this guy like days ago but already fell in love with his music

[alissaaboultaif]

He deserves all the recognition in the world, like imagine the dedicated that all this should spend. Isak changed my life for the better and I hope that all his fans will be able to change his and make him have the recognition it deserves❤️

[alissaaboultaif]

I'm so prepared to be addicted to this song ❤️

[Deejaayurj]

I have never, never, heard anything such as this. Achingly beautiful. Unexpressibly, somehow not quite able to touch, sadness.
As beautiful as he is himself, and in talent. Oh my, the voice . . so able to reach to the stunning composition.
I dont know exactly what it means, not allowing myself to listen to the lyrics story, going just by feel. But i have an idea. Don't want to know. Cant bear

"Almost Heaven"

There's an angel in the window
On a West Virginia church door swinging open
And he's pointing to the exit sign
Said, you'll never walk on water
If you wait until the river's frozen over
In the Shenandoah summer

Well, it was almost heaven
Choirs singing in robes of white
Almost heaven
Lovers laying side by side but
When we reach forever
Will there be a place where you and I may find home?

So I keep a candle burning
And I pray to see that Saint I knew for certain
But it's just my own reflection now
And that silhouette in the window
Is the shape of someone I don't quite remember
Dancing in the fire

Well, it was almost heaven
Choirs singing in robes of white
Almost heaven
Lovers laying side by side but
When we reach forever
Will there be a place where you and I may find home?
In heaven

I'll make a room for you
If you stay, you'll rise on me now
Lover, you can lean on me
Love, I can lift you higher
Said, I'm making a room for you
Will you keep your eyes on me now?
Lover, lean on me
Love, I can lift you higher
Oh, I can lift you higher, oh

And it was almost heaven
Oh, it was almost heaven
Oh, when we reach forever
Will there be a place where you and I may find home?
In heaven
Make our home in heaven
