sometimes baby when you’re really down
there just don’t seem to be a ray of hope around
and everybody that you meet kind of wears a frown
it’s cold and lonely in the heart of town
got to tell you all that
there’s a place that’s called heaven
don’t you ever forget
now once i heard about heaven yeah
i’m gonna get there yet
some days you laugh and some days you cry
sometimes it feels like the world has passed you right by
but everybody’s got to find a peaceful place to hide
if you’re out looking take a look inside
and i think you’ll find that
there’s a place that’s called heaven
you might think that’s kind of square oh oh yeah
if you don’t believe in heaven yeah
you ain’t never been there
they’ll try to bring you down to their way of thinking yeah
but don’t you do it no no don’t you let it get by don’t let it by
a little voice inside will tell you
exactly what you’re gonna do
don’t be a fool
ooh yeah

’cause you can find happiness standing right where you are
just open up the windows that are in your heart
and let the light shine then your life will start
please believe it that
there’s a place that’s called heaven
it’s filled with joy and peace whoa oh yeah
and once you get a look at heaven yeah
you’ll find the love that you seek
when all the world is falling down
you’ll find a world filled with peace and love and joy
for every girl and boy
and all your troubles will cease
you know somebody said to keep on pushing
’cause there’s a change that’s got to come
she said thank the lord
and every day i thank you lord
for all the stars and all the seas
and all the birds and all the bees
it’s heaven
