Molly Nilsson "The Closest We'll Ever Get To Heaven".
Song taken from Follow The Light (DSA 2010).

The Closest We’ll Ever Get to Heaven
The closest we’ll ever get to heaven,
with a stolen six­pack from 7­Eleven
Though this city sleeps, I bet she never dreams
She never dreams like you and me
I know it’s been a while since I saw your smile
but I hope you’re doing great
My old friend, I haven’t seen you since spring 2008
The years will come and go, before we know it we’ll be old
Summer is already over and it’s getting cold
In the ice and snow we can hardly keep our cigarettes a­glow
So tell me, when the wild wind blows, how do you hold on
to your soul?
I hope all of your dreams became your reality, and if not
I hope you’re living in your dreams
You know, I kept them all cause I meant to
all the letters I wrote but never sent you
I google you sometimes, but the search results never fits
Cause someone with the same name is getting all of the hits
And maybe the digital age left you behind,
but you never left my mind
