Lyrics
[Verse 1]
For Heaven's sake, let's fall in love
It's no mistake to call it love
An angel's holding hands with me
How heavenly Heaven can be
[Verse 2]
Here is romance for us to try
Here is the chance we can't deny
While Heaven's giving us the break
Let's fall in love for Heaven's sake
[PreChorus]
Don't say a word, my darling
Don't break the spell like this
Just hold me tight, we're alone in the night
And Heaven is here in a kiss
[Chorus]
This pair of eyes can see a star
So paradise can't be so far
Since Heaven's what we're dreaming of
For Heaven's sake, let's fall in love
[PreChorus]
Don't say a word, my darling
Don't break the spell like this
Just hold me tight, we're alone in the night
And Heaven is here in a kiss
[Chorus]
This pair of eyes can see a star
So paradise can't be so far
Since Heaven's what we're dreaming of
For Heaven's sake, let's fall in love
