Intro:------- Everybody has their own idea of heaven What kind of paradise they'll see Pearly gates, streets of gold No getting sick, or growin old Sounds like a beautiful place to be But as for me My heaven is a wood frame house with a great big porch goin all the way around Sittin on the swing listenin to the sound of the birds singin My heaven is a warm summer day in the back yard While the kids all play, flies and mosquitoes stay away While we're eattin watermelon -- That's my heaven - You're always gonna find a few non-believers Those who stay lost in the dark But I believe there is a place Full of light 'n love and grace - And I don't believe that its all that far 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 would leave cause that don't happen In my heaven Instrumental: ------- My heaven is where I am now on the front porch of the wood frame house Swingin with you just lookin around at all I've been given And this life I'm livin - Is my heaven My heaven, My heaven
