Lyrics to ‘Heaven’

This is perfect, come kiss me one more time

I couldn’t dream this up even if I tried

You and me in this moment feels like magic, don’t it

I’m right where I wanna be

Everybody’s talkin’ ‘bout heaven like they just can’t wait to go

Sayin’ how it’s gonna be so good, so beautiful

But lyin’ next to you in this bed with you

I ain’t convinced ‘cause I don’t know how

I don’t know how heaven, heaven could be better than this

I swear you’re an angel sent to this world

What did I do right to deserve you girl

I could stay here forever

I’d be fine if we never had to even leave this room

Everybody’s talkin’ ‘bout heaven like they just can’t wait to go

Sayin’ how it’s gonna be so good, so beautiful

But lyin’ next to you in this bed with you

I ain’t convinced ‘cause I don’t know how

I don’t know how heaven, heaven could be better than this

Everybody’s talkin’ ‘bout heaven like they just can’t wait to go

Sayin’ how it’s gonna be so good, so beautiful

But lyin’ next to you in this bed with you

I ain’t convinced ‘cause I don’t know how

I don’t know how heaven, heaven could be better than this

Could be better than this

I swear this is perfect, come kiss me one more time
