Lyrics
I never dream of a heaven fair
Up in the wide blue sky.
I never dream of the angels there,
This is the reason why:
Chorus
Heaven seems near when your arms are around me.
You brought it here to me.
In your dear eyes I can see all the angels I ever want to see.
Out of the blue, dear, God sent me you, dear,
You and your wonderful charms.
If I can’t go to heaven at least I can say,
I’m in heaven when I’m in your arms.
Verse 2
I never picture that land of bliss
Millions of miles away.
When you are near, and I feel your kiss,
My heart can only say:
