  • 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

    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

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

    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

    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

    In this world we're just beginning
    To understand the miracle of living
    Baby, I was afraid before
    But I'm not afraid anymore

    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

    (Heaven)
    (Heaven)
    (Heaven)

    In this world we're just beginning
    To understand the miracle of living
    Baby, I was afraid before
    But I'm not afraid anymore

    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
    Ooh, Heaven is a place on Earth (ooh)
    Ooh, Heaven is a place on Earth
    Ooh, Heaven is a place on Earth (ooh)
