Heaven Is a Place on Earth (acoustic) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the night falls down I wait for you
And you come around and the world's alive
With the sound of kids on the street outside

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When you walk into the room
You pull me close and we start to move
We're spinning with the stars above
And you lift me up in a wave of love

[Chorus]
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth

[Verse 2]
When I feel alone I reach for you
And you bring me home
When I'm lost at sea
I hear your voice and it carries me

[Pre-Chorus 2]
In this world, we're just beginning
To understand the miracle of living
I was afraid before, but I'm not afraid anymore
[Chorus]
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth

Ah
Heaven
Ah
Heaven

[Pre-Chorus 2]
In this world, we're just beginning
To understand the miracle of living
I was afraid before, but I'm not afraid anymore

[Chorus]
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
