Trace Adkins - My Heaven lyrics

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 mosquitoes stay away

While we're eating watermelon

That's my heaven

You're always gonna 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 it’s 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

In my heaven

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

Is my heaven

My heaven, my heaven
