Lyrics of
Locked Out Of Heaven

Locked Out of Heaven by Bruno Mars talks about a relationship so good it feels heavenly, akin to a transcendental experience being with the loved one. The lyrics mention disbelief in love and miracles until finding that special someone. The inspiration for the song came from past relationships and the joy found in new beginnings. It was praised for its sound reminiscent of 80s bands but with a modern production.

Never had much faith in love or miracles
Never would have put my heart on the line
But swimming in your world is something spiritual
I'm born again every time you spend the night

Cause your sex takes me to paradise
Yeah, your sex takes me to paradise
And it shows, yeah, yeah, yeah

Cause you make me feel like
I’ve been locked out of heaven
For too long
For too long
Yeah, you make me feel like
I’ve been locked out of heaven
For too long
For too long, oh oh oh oh,

Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah ooh
Oh yeah yeah
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah ooh!
You bring me to my knees You make me testify
You could make a sinner change his ways
Open up your gates Cause I can’t wait to see the light
And right there is where I want to stay, stay

Cause your sex takes me to paradise
Yea your sex takes me to paradise
And it shows, yeah, yeah, yeah

Cause you make me feel like
I’ve been locked out of heaven
For too long
For too long
Yeah you make me feel like
I’ve been locked out of heaven
For too long
For too long

Oh woah woah woah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't I just stay here
Spend the rest of my days here

Oh, woah, woah, woah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't I just stay here
Spend the rest of my days here

Cause you make me feel like
I’ve been locked out of heaven
For too long
For too long
Cause you make me feel like
I’ve been locked out of heaven
For too long
For too long oh oh oh oh

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Ooh!
Oh, yeah, yeah,
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
