While I Was Making Love to You

Long ago, my mamma told me

"If you're good, you'll go to Heaven

Heaven is a place you ought to see

Lightning flashes, but it won't harm you

Thunder rolls, but it won't scare you

And angels singing perfect harmony"

I believe what mamma told me

And I hoped I'd go to Heaven

Tried to be as good as I could be

Well, last night I saw the lightening

Last night, I felt the thunder

Last night, when you brought Paradise to me

So if I die and go to Heaven

It won't be nothing new

'Cause I think that I saw Heaven

While I was making love to you

And if I ever walk the streets of gold

I know my mamma's words were true

But I wonder what she'd say

If she knew that I saw Heaven here on Earth

While I was making love to you

Pearly gates last night were open

And I know I heard some angels

And everything was beautiful to me

But my mamma's words grew weaker with everything you whispered

Your loving arms were as far as I could see

So if I die and go to Heaven

It won't be nothing new

'Cause I think that I saw Heaven

While I was making love to you

And if I ever walk the streets of gold

I know my mamma's words were true

But I wonder what she'd say

If she knew that I saw Heaven here on Earth

While I was making love to you

Come love me again (see the lightening, feel the thunder roll)

Come love me again (see the lightening, feel the thunder roll)

Come love me again (see the lightening, feel the thunder roll)

Whoa-oh, come take me back to Paradise, I want to feel it in my soul

So if I die and go to Heaven

It won't be nothing new

'Cause I think that I saw Heaven

While I was making love to you

And if I ever walk the streets of gold

I know my mamma's words were true

But I wonder what she'd say

If she knew that I saw Heaven here on Earth

While I was making love to you
