Just Short of Glory

(Debbie Hennessey)
written by Renee Carly

Just Short of Glory

Lucy fell hard for his heart of gold

Too blinded to see the fork in the road

His love so true so sure to hold

No she never dreamed he would go

chorus: Just short of glory

That’s what it was

A sweet taste of heaven

A gift from above

Almost a perfect love

Just short of glory it was

Lost in her sorrow she can hardly breath

The air is so thick with her disbelief

Over and over she’s questioning

How could he love her then leave

chorus: Just short of glory

That’s what it was

A sweet taste of heaven

A gift from above

Almost a perfect love

Just short of glory – it was

Just short of glory – it was

Just short of glory

bridge: She’s looking through the window of today

The only thing she sees is her pain

She’s starting to wonder if there’s half a chance

She’ll ever love again that way

chorus: Just short of glory

That’s what it was

A sweet taste of heaven

A gift from above

Almost a perfect love

Just short of glory – it was

Just short of glory – it was

Just short of glory
