Everybody has their own idea of Heaven |
|
What kind of paradise they'll see |
|
Pearly gates, streets of gold, no gettin' sick or growing old |
|
Sounds like a beautiful place to be, but as for me |
|
My Heaven is a wood frame house |
|
With a great big porch going all the way around |
|
Sittin' on a swing listening |
|
To the sounds of the birds sing |
|
My Heaven is a warm summer day |
|
In the backyard while the kids all play |
|
Flies and mosquitoes stay away while we're eatin' watermelon |
|
That's my Heaven |
|
You're always going to find a few non-believers |
|
Those who stay lost in the dark |
|
But I believe there is a place full of light, and love and grace |
|
And I don't believe that it's all that fun, in my heart |
|
My heaven is a cell phone ring |
|
While I'm at work and the only thing |
|
That you have to say |
|
Is you miss me and get home in a hurry |
|
My Heaven is the very worst day that I spent with you |
|
When you were so mad but I still knew |
|
Nobody believes 'cause that don't happen |
|
In my Heaven |
|
My Heaven is where I am now on the front porch |
|
Of a wood frame house swingin' with you just lookin' around |
|
At all that I've been given |
|
And this life I'm livin' |
|
Is my Heaven |
|
My Heaven |
|
My Heaven |
