I have sailed the peaceful water
Salty ocean deep and blue
Felt the rapture of the dawning
Thrilled through sunset's golden view
I've sought above the mountain
Peeks for valleys great and wide
But it's a little more like heaven by your side
It's a little more like heaven where you are
I have sought for happiness both near and far
But my search for love was
Through the day that I met you
Cause it's a little more like heaven where you are
I have watched the crystal raindrops
Fall to earth to cool the day
Watched the rainbow at twilight
When the clouds have flown away
I've adored the clinging roses round
My mountain home so dear
But it's a little more like
Heaven when you're near
It's a little more like heaven
Where you are
I have sought for happiness both near and far
But my search for love was through
The day that I met you
Cause it's a little more like heaven where you are
I've been tempted for a moment by
Your lure and magic charms
Of a fickle flame and beauty
While waltzin' in her arms
I cherrished mem'ries of the
Past of friends so kind and true
But it's a little more like heaven here with you
It's a little more like heaven where you are
I have sought for happiness both near and far
But my search for love was through
The day that I met you
Cause it's a little more like heaven where you are
