My Heaven

[Verse 1] Everybody has their own idea of heaven What kind of paradise they'll see Pearly gates, streets of gold No getting sick, or growing old Sounds like a beautiful place to be But as for me My heaven is a wood frame house with a great big porch going all the way around Sitting on the swing listening to the sound of the birds singing My heaven is a warm summer day in the back yard While the kids all play, flies and mosquitos stay away While we're eating watermelon [Chorus] That's my heaven [Verse 2] You're always going to find a few non-believers Those who stay lost in the dark But I believe there is a place Full of light 'n love and grace And I don't believe that its all that far in my heart My heaven is a cell phone ring while I'm at work And the only thing that you have to say Is you miss me and get home in a hurry My heaven is the very worst day that I spent with you When you were so mad but I still knew Nobody would leave cause that don't happen [Chorus] [Verse 3] My heaven is where I am now on the front porch of the wood frame house Swinging with you just looking around at all I've been given and this life I'm living [Chorus]
