Bryan AdamsHeaven Lyrics: Oh, thinking about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothing can take you away from me
we've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me coming back for more
[Chorus] Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
[ Find more Lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.org/ca ] We're in heaven
Oh, once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feeling down
Now, nothing could change
what you mean to me
there's a lot that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way
[Chorus]
I've been waiting for so long
For something to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are coming true
Through the good times and the bad
Yeah, I'll be standing there by you

1 "Heaven" first appeared in 1983, on the sountrack album for the movie A
Night in Heaven and received substantial airplay on album-oriented rock
radio stations. It entered and reached #9 on Billboard's Rock Tracks chart
in early 1984. It was released as the third single from the album Reckless
in April 1985, and in the U.S. reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. In
Canada, it reached the top twenty on the Canadian Singles Chart and
remained there for a full month. The song was also released in the U.K.,
Australia, Europe and New Zealand in 1985. In the U.K. it hit the top forty
and continued its trend as a higher-charting single when it reached the top
twenty in most of the European countries in which it charted. The music
video was shot in London, England, and was directed by Steve Barron. It
features Adams singing the song in a live concert setting; behind him,
stacked video monitors show his band playing along. Video monitors also
occupy each seat of the otherwise empty theater. The video was nominated for
an MTV Video Music Award for Best Cinematography.
2 Personnel performing on this recording:
* Bryan Adams (piano, percussion, lead vocals)
* Keith Scott (guitar)
* Rob Sabino (keyboards)
* Dave Taylor (bass)
* Steve Smith (drums)
An interesting side note: Half-way through the recording session drummer
Mickey Curry announced that he had to leave since he had committed in
advance to a Hall & Oates session and the "Heaven" recording session was
running behind schedule. Adams called Journey drummer, Steve Smith, who
happened to be in New York at the time and he filled Curry's drumming
position.
