Lyrics
Heaven, I’m in Heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing, cheek to cheek
Heaven, I’m in Heaven
And the cares that hung around me thru the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler’s lucky streak
When we’re out together dancing, cheek to cheek
Oh! I love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak
But it doesn’t thrill me half as much
As dancing, cheek to cheek
Oh! I love to go out fishing
In river or a creek
But I don’t enjoy it half as much
As dancing, cheek to cheek
Dance with me I want my arm about you
The charm about you
Will carry me thru to Heaven
Im in Heaven and my heart
Beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing, cheek to cheek
