Lyrics:
Goddamn, you look holy hit from behind with light. You’re a painting of a saint and I’m nervous stumbling over my lines when I tell you I love you and we stare at Catalina. A city lost to the sea, carried out by the tide. You were the one thing I got right. Goddamn, you look holy bathed in the January light on the floor of our new bedroom on the carpet with the window opened wide. And when you tell me you love me, I can actually see it. Your breath frozen in the air, newborn droplets of ice. You were the one thing I got right. I’m measuring heartbeats in miles away. You held me together. I used to burst and decay. We got off the airplane, a couple of runaways. I was hoping you’d stay. Could you stay? You were the obvious one. From a taxicab in Chelsea out past Salvation Mountain. You were the obvious one. From a walk along the highline out to Wicker Park in August. You were the obvious one. From your upper east-side dorm room to the southwest Marin Headlands with you smiling in the sand. Goddamn, I hate leaving. Another early flight. I ran the dishwasher this morning. I wanted there to be clean plates for you tonight. I’ve grown used to your perfume. It hangs in the morning light. Wake me up before you leave for work and kiss me goodbye. You were the one thing I got right. I’m glad that you stayed.

The cutest thing is that Dan and his girlfriend went on a holiday together in January and was posting photos on his Instagram back then!
"I ran the dishwasher this morning, I wanted there to be clean plates for you tonight" Jesus flipper fuck even just that one line makes me want to run down the street and hug a hobo and buy him a sandwich. all this extra love must be shared
I had no clue Soupy could write a song this adorable. And it's nice to hear a love song that actually makes you feel warm inside instead of uncomfortable.
Joe Pontiac another song is Hey Thanks

Just thought I'd leave a 2023 comment. This is not forgotten.
The older I get, the less enchanted I am with the poppunk scene. The themes for the most part just become juvenile and whiny. The wonder years, however, are an exception to that. Their growth as artists (and Dan's song writing in particular) has honestly amazed me and inspired me. The lyricism on No Closer to Heaven is beautifully articulate and nothing short of genius. They are a band that has grown and changed at the same pace that my life has and for that I connect with their music on such a intimate level. I can listen to older songs from the upsides and can think and feel how I did back then and then listen to no closer to heaven and learn to come to terms with growing older, mental health issues and loss. They are true artists. I know this comment is sentimental and uncomfortably emotional but god damn, someone has to acknowledge their ability to write songs and captivate the emotions of listeners.
*an intimate
Well fucking said. From the teenage disdain with my surroundings that was echoed by The Upsides to the cathartic moments of reflection upon my younger life I now have as an adult listening to No Closer, I grew with this band. That is something truly profound and I couldnt have said it better myself.
is squirting real
7 years after this comment, i tout the wonder years to all my friends as one of the greatest pop punk bands of all time. they took a generally sophomoric genre and spun it to create songs that get MORE relatable the older you get. i've been listening to TWY for as long as i can remember, really, and man as i get older i love them more
Dear Anthony Fantano: I respect you. But. Sometimes an album that doesn't break new ground within a genre does that genre so well, with so much passion and talent, that it cannot be dismissed. This record is one of those records. A beautiful example of what emo/pop punk can be.
Fantano is entitled to his opinion, but that guy DOES NOT have good taste in music if he found this album to be bad. I find alot of artists that I LOVE that he features on reviews, he always doesnt like them or talks crap about them.....I know my taste in music is fantastic without even bringing my ego ( or what little there is) into the equation, so for someone like him to dismiss so many of my beloved albums, I just dont think he has very good taste in music to begin with lol
Wow, the memories and the way he references them. What a song, what a way to warm the heart.
I'm glad to see that they made a love song, for something different. I really like the part where he says "You're were the one thing I got right".
+01uofmfan me too! especially the part from 1:57 to 2:22
Feeling a huge passing through a screen door reference "I was kind of hoping you'd stay, well I was kind of hoping you'd stay"
That song references a song from their album The Upsides called "This Party Sucks"
xxmodernlove they're all allusions to eachother
I'm declaring this song as the song I will dance to at my wedding
same
also same
It's the song I'm walking down the isle too.
@@jaseyXxXrae did it yesterday. if you find the right person it hits in all the best ways.
oh god this song just made me cry. "I'm glad you stayed" referring to lyrics in tgg and god. You can feel the passion and love in this song. One of the strongest love songs i've ever heard
All these people talking about how nice this song makes them feel and I’m sat here listening thinking about the one I had that got away. I haven’t felt like I felt with her with anyone else, and she lives so close but she’s so far away from me.
It's funny how your own circumstances inform the meaning of a song. Until I read the lyrics to discover the last line is "I'm glad that you stayed", I thought this was a break up song, reflecting on an ended relationship.
Would love an acoustic version of this
this aged so well
It was done on the burst and bloom acoustic ep
When l find "the one", l shall dedicate this song to him because it is so beautiful and fuzzy.
I'm gonna dedicate this to my one
"I'm measuring heartbeats in miles away. You held me together - I used to burst and decay. We got off the airplane, a couple of runaways. I'm glad that you stayed."
We used to be long distance until about a month ago. I used to be super self destructive and did a lot of stupid shit, he influenced me to be better. I had a really shitty incident with some family and had to leave 2 months short of 18, and subsequently rode my first airplane down to him.
This song is too accurate for our relationship to not love lmao
This is one of the most beautiful songs ive heard in ages. Hope one day I can attend a concert of this great band.
I saw the wonder years last night and they opened with this song... you could feel his and the crowd's energy skyrocket and it was just beautiful
Me in January 1, 2016: Goddamn I look holy!
Holy shit I can actually feel the love he has for his fiancé, I've been listening to this song since it came out but I'm just now noticing how amazing the lyrics really are
it's january which means i will be listening to this song everyday
I saw them live in Kansas City, a couple in the back got engaged during this song
The wonder years is the one band that can consistently bring me to tears.
such an underrated tune
Goddamn, this sounds holy.
Im approaching nirvana with these songs
This song once meant something positive to me but it just hurts now
Now I wanna get married and have this as my wedding song :'(
my dog loves this song
Stumbled across the Wonder Years at an Enter Shikari gig last month in Cardiff. What a band, and awesome live. And this whole album is awesome
Maaaaaaaan ive always wanted to see enter shikari live
The best song. Love it
Soupy west and the roaring years
Aaron Campbell and the Wonder Twenties?

+Victor Bonilla If i'm being honest, i'm getting there 😏🎶
you're the illegitimate child of mark hoppus
+Jagger Nintendo I wish I were aha
RIP in peace
if you're listening to this song and not crying, you're listening to it wrong.
+K Heart me too that's why it makes me cry. it's one of my favorite songs
this song fucks me up everytime! :(
Fuck...How did I not know about this band? I can't stop listening
Reminder that you should listen again. :D
best song on the album imo
This is good
Yay!
you were the one thing I got right.
I NEED a piano arrangement of this AH
2022 😥
Tears.
Thank you soupy
Seriously who disliked this?
I cannot wait for Burst and Decay
not to be emo or anything but wow this HURTS.
This is the happiest song they've ever written, how does this hurt lol
YA it is a happy song but to me it brings back old times that make me not so happy sooo I don't know sorry if that's weird or something
isn't "Hey Thanks" a happy song?
I don't think the wonder years write many songs that can easily be categorised as happy or sad. The emotions in their songs are a loooot more complex than that its why i love them so much tbh.
Max Ayling honestly i agree.
play this on my wedding
goddamn, I hate leaving
2021?
I love you Shaunayeobunjing
The worst mistake you could ever make is letting her leave
This song, sounds like another song. But I can't remember which song it is. Any help?
+Christian Connolly move along
Kok bisa yaa twy sedikit yg tau dahal bagus
Who else is here because of Colby? Lol
Yo, just saying, i was mad as fuck at my boyfriend and listening to music, re-found this song, and went to apologize for being mean.
This could be a good song if
A) it didn't try so hard to be meaningful and more importantly
B) if it didn't sound like 9,999 other songs.
John Peluso i don’t think a dedicated love song with specific references to memories made with the songwriter’s girlfriend could “try so hard to be meaningful.” it just is meaningful. it’s a personal love song. no idea what you’re going on about, buddy.
Everyones a critic..........douche
@@jacoblynch4334
1. Why does constructive criticism make me a douche?
2. It's time to retire "douche" as an attack on someone. It lost all its effectiveness in 2007.
@@johnpeluso7050 WHY ARE YOU LISTING SHIT 😂
@@Auroraintheunkown I list shit because
1. Listing is cool. All the kids are doing it.
AND
B. I knew that you would be asking that question on this date. 🙂
