Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Heaven
I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 2]
It's heaven
I'm in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 3]
Oh, I'd love to climb a mountain
Reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 4]
Oh, I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 5]
Now, Momma, dance with me
I want my arms about you
The charms about you
Will carry me through
[Verse 6]
It's heaven
I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 7]
Take it Ella, swing it
[Verse 8]
Heaven
I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 9]
Heaven
I'm in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 10]
Oh, I'd love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 11]
Oh, I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 12]
Come on and dance with me
I want my arm about you
The charm about you
Will carry me through
To heaven
I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we out together, dancing cheek to cheek
[Verse 13]
Yes, dance with me
I want my arms about you
I want my arms about you
The charm about you
Charms about you
Will carry me through
Will carry me through, dear
To heaven
Mmm, heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak (Yeah)
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
[Outro]
Cheek to cheek
Cheek to cheek
Cheek to cheek
