I Know What Heaven Is
(Karen Joy Brown)
I know what heaven is
I know what heaven is, so don’t try to sell me lies
It’s where every good intention grows enough to touch the sky
I know what heaven is, it’s looking in your eyes
To dream of all that’s possible and then to let it die
I know what heaven is- to know you’re not alone
Face the vast and vicious beauty with a hand to guide you home
And I know just how to get there
One day at a time
I can tell you that it’s worth it
The joy and pain that makes this wine
We toast to love
I know what heaven is, it’s the sand that makes the pearl
At the bottom of the ocean in that dark and sunless world
