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

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. ❤❤❤
Sending love and big hug 🫶🏼🫂 you're strong, never forget that !!
Just teared up from reading this 🥺 Sending you so much love!
it gives me nostalgia to a relationship I've never experienced
Word
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.
Deepwaters724 ❤️ i’d love a beer
@@isakdanielson If you ever come to Slovenia, I will buy you several! Or our locally made wine or schnapps! 😁🍷🍻🥃
Wow this is so true
@Deepwaters724 I am Slovenian too and I just love Isak's voice
This is not his original song anyway.
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!! 🙏😍
I was gonna say all these things! When the piano played i knew for one moment it was Jeremiah's original! Isak made justice to this. The harmony, the echo sound vibe. The timbre of his voice kinda thick as opposite to Jeremias quite thin voice.. This is my song! 😍
That was a good season on AI. My favorite song Jeremiah did was "Who wants to live forever" by Queen-I love that song. Isak could really do that one justice as well
No credit given to the writer. Shameful.
The day I discovered Isak’s music my life got better. Obsessed with his voice, it’s so beautifully haunting
❤️
Yes, he is very talented. His voice is so deep and emotional, isn't it?
You should check out this song sung by the writer, Jeremiah Lloyd Harmon: ua-cam.com/video/sPm1r9GaXi8/v-deo.html
This isn’t his song he just covered it. The original is so much better by Jeremiah Lloyd harmon
Jeremiah Lloyd Harmon deserves recognition for this song.
was questioning I taught he wrote performed on tv . I was too confused seeing on Spotify under an other performer and also here. I mean it's a nice video and voice but the original story behind the lyrics is much more profound and deeper than many people know. so yeah
This waiting is killing me slowly. At this point, tomorrow i will be almost (in) heaven.

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!
Yeah I dont like that he gave no credit it’s a bit shadey lol
Wow. I had no idea. I know he’s on on Universal now and maybe they just handed him a song. Pretty weird that it hasn’t been mentioned at all. I definitely thought it was Isak’s original.
Still, I have to say that Isak’s voice and arrangement definitely lifts the song and it’s a damn impressive cover by him. 🤍
@@jakebashful Yeah, it’s weird. I kept wondering where I heard the song before, and then I remembered that it was Jeremiah who sang it.
@@EF.music. It’s a beautiful cover, yes. Both Jeremiah and Isak have impressive vocal ranges, and they definitely nailed it.
I especially love that Isak kept true to the original song’s story and chose to feature a same sex relationship, as the original song deals with Jeremiah’s struggle with familial rejection because of his homosexuality.
YES SIR!!!!!!!!!
I'm so prepared to be addicted to this song ❤️
Im from a small town in West Virginia and this is almost heaven. I have goosebumps. Ur voice is absolutely beautiful.
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. :)
Thank you
Aaaw thank you 🥺 i felt it
Thank you love
I recently had an… experience that looked exactly like this video. Coming back to this song reminds me of him. Thank you.
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❤️

Jeremiah Lloyd Harmon deserves recognition for this song.
This dude deserves nothing hes a thief should be copyrighted its not his song
"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.
Spot-on! When you grow up in an environment where love is but an abstraction (because of unfit parents, for example), once a grown-up yourself, you find it very difficult to trust anyone, let alone set up your own definition of love and put it into practice. Now there's a detail in what I've just watched, the book the guy is reading. There might be something interesting in it, I think I want to delve into it. Not that the song in itself is not worth its salt, mind you! A very good one indeed!
@@HessepeQuhaire Unfit parents is the easy excuse. Friendship is love, and growing up friends are a strong influence.
I grew up at time when a certain type of abuse was only associated with adults yet I suffered it at the hands of another kid in my school that I thought of as a friend due to my own naivete. Even if I had realised it at the time reporting it would have gone nowhere as children couldn't do that was the mindset of the time. That's without going outside of the "stranger danger" message of the time.
@@Dermacrosis I understand what you mean. But believe me, unfit parents is not at all the easy excuse. I should know: parental love was a thing I was denied. And such a scar can never heal.
@@HessepeQuhaire It is the easy excuse if you are one of them or using it as "society" forgetting it "takes a village to raise a child".
My father, note the wording, didn't like me and so could never love me, he would have preferred if I was the 8th failed pregnancy. He hated I wasn't. I realised that when I was around 5 years old so I know how much that hurts and can't be healed.
Lordy even recently I wasn't even mentioned by him when one of the family my mum is still in contact with told her my father would like to reconnect with. Because of that she to him to say it would never happen.
I am grateful none of his pathetic bigoted attitudes are part of me.
@@Dermacrosis I don't mean to be rude but that is poppycock. Read Kafka's "Letter To His Father", or "The Glass Menagerie" by Tennessee Williams, or Salinger's "The Catcher In The Rye", for example, and then maybe we'll be able to resume from where we are leaving off today.
i´m so excited because i found this guy like days ago but already fell in love with his music
Mary Stylik 🤣👋🏻
He’s probably the most underrated musician out there
Yes harry . Let me know if you are a Larry shipper
@@marzia__sadeqi5408 i´m yeah
@@nikiulcova6241 yesssss . Nice to meet you
This has such a nostalgic feel to it.. a tranquil sense of sadness and I’m not sure how to describe it; not that there’s a need for it. The song speaks for itself and it’s absolutely beautiful.
"How can you be in love if you don't know what love is". The truest thing ever said.
"even though a part of me knows he will destroy us both I welcome destruction with baited breath"
he has become my favorite artist in such a short time
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
I have no words for your talent. Soooooo beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Isak Danielson never disappoints me. Every new song I come across, I start to like it right away ❤
The song , the lyrics, and the video are all beautiful
I have listened to a lot of Isak songs and, vocally this has to be the most versatile and colourful, especially towards the end.
His voice cut so deep 😢
Yes Isak!!
This is so incredibly beautiful and heartbreaking. There are so few artists telling stories anymore with their music. I felt like this was a whole novel. Well done!
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
I didn’t not just cry through the whole journey. Every element was sooo beautiful. How am I going to recover from this?
OMG... I can't stop crying... this is heartbreakingly sad. An amazing interpretation. Isak = incredible
Outstanding cover from this masterpiece by Jeremiah Lloyd Harmon. 🤲👏👏👏
This is so emotional.. I can't stop replaying the song
UH MY HEART! I was nervous that his subtle affections would be rejected, rejoiced when they kissed, and crumbed when everything has an ending and he walked into the river. You sang this beautifully and the video was powerful and just as beautiful. Thank you.
Yikes
Beyond beautiful
Isak you are art. Your voice is so powerful. I love your songs. Thanks for your music.
Just my 2cents: This song was written and composed by Jeremiah from American Idol. But the way Isak sang it, is just beyond greatness. Bravo to these two guys!
I think my heart stopped beating. So many emotions. ISAK = ART
The man’s got the voice of an angel.Too much human feeling being shared in this song.So proud
The other day I went to see a dance performance and there was one of the dancers doing a solo to this song. As soon as I got home after the show, I immediately watched what this song was and fell in love with Isak's music. His songs are amazing. Thank you Isak
He makes great songs to dance to! I’m using broken as my first solo song 😊
Fell in love with this song when I first saw Jeremiah singing it on American Idol. So soulful.
Almost... I am speechless... And it is a raining outside... Thank you Isak... Because you pull me back...
OMG please Isak come to Greece. Your music is A M A Z I N G. There is not a single day that I don't listen to your songs. All of them are truly heaven. I pity my neighbours for having to listen to me singing (or trying to sing) every day ^.^
Nicholas Morsett ❤️
His beautiful voice...love you so much😢❤❤❤
"No beauty shines brighter than that of a good heart" so Just Keep shining our precious Isak Danielson and remember that we will always support you,always stand by you and always love you no matter what.
Listening to his voice is just like heaven. Not ,,almost". It's just so beautiful it takes me to another universe
Hey guys, back again, Because I am literally OBSESSED with Isak's voice
I cant even describe what this meant man.. you only deserve the best in life bro, only special souls can connect w others like this.
I’m so excited 😍💛💛💛💛💛
Ooh La La....almost heaven! I could sit here all day! I'll give this lady a run for her money! Life is good!❤🐕❤️🐕❤️🐕

"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
Humm, almost as if you didn’t bother to look in the Description Page.
WoW!!! There’s The Lyrics
@@rdwngdblkbrd629um, I didn't look. Are we meant to
Thank you
this is awesome! so proud of Jeremiah! its almost sounds like him
This song is art. ☁️
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
this is insane, I can't keep my tears. you making more incredibly every time. i love you. i will always love you and your unique music. please keep making and never stop. we are here, to listen you. always staying here. love you. thank you
OMG I'm never gonna get tired of this.
this music video, the vocals, everything is just perfect 😭
This is killing me, i waiting for you so long... i always listen your music and I felt in peace, thank you so much, I'll crying in my bed thinking about your song
This song is soooooo beautiful. vocal, message, instrumental ❤️❤️❤️
I just cry everytime I listen to this. This is otherworldly.
when you say 'almost heaven' my heart break into pieces. I hope one day I'll be listening you at your concert.
Incredible, and I'll just leave it at that.
How’s exited from now😍❤️❤️
Isak.... I absolutely love you!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I've always found it very difficult when it comes to feelings (i.e. allowing myself to feel or allowing something to move me- if that makes sense?), if they be within relationships, music, film, art, etc...
I find it almost impossible to take anything from it...process it... I suppose?
But that said, listening to this...listening to you, has miraculously, in some way evoked feeling inside of me. I don't know...my heart feels full. And when I heard this I thought...beautiful. So...thanks, I guess? Because it truly was beautiful.
I seriously can not get enough of this guys voice.
I cannot believe how perfectly each shot captured the emotion behind the song. You have a truly beautiful creative soul Isak and I am grateful that you have chosen to share it with the world. Thank you for gifting us all a piece of your heart through your music.
Goose bumps, #1 song on UA-cam.
I crying 😂 This is amazing, his music is amazing. The visuals, the vocals, just amazing. People like this deserve more recognition than the one they get❤️
The scene where they're laying down on a blanket reminds me of this quote from the book of Ecclesiastes: "[God] has also set eternity in the human heart".
The goosebumps of sitting in a cold room in combination with this song hit different 🌸🥺
Really amazing Isak !!
this song is so pure and peaceful. It brings peace and kindness in my head. It’s a song to keep in mind
Oh my lord ! Isak I love uuuuu
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.
literally found this man a few minutes ago and I already have this song memorized and am sobbing to it at midnight. It's beautiful.
Masterpiece!
Sung with conviction, as if heartbreak had only just happened. The real deal❤
I love you sooo much. Music and video are amazing. Thank you for everything. 🥰🥰🥰
I love you, Isak Danielson, this is absolutely amazing!
I wish I could describe the emotions I get from it. This song smells of the sun and when I listen to it I feel like I am really in heaven. Very wonderful. Thankful
Just when you think at 53 years on this earth you have heard every voice there is to hear tht moves the very core of your soul i discover this young man... truly a voice kissed by the very breathe of angels... a big ask but do you think you might ever do a gig or 2 in glasgow scotland uk... seeing you in concert is now on my bucket list... breathtakingly stunning vocals...
Oh my gosh I have been waiting for this day for so long!!! Marked in my calendar!
