  • Heaven, I'm in Heaven
    And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
    And I seem to find the happiness I seek
    When we're out together dancing, cheek to cheek

    Heaven, I'm in Heaven
    And the cares that hung around me through the week
    Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
    When we're out together dancing, cheek to cheek

    Oh, I love to climb a mountain
    And to reach the highest peak
    But it doesn't thrill me half as much
    As dancing cheek to cheek

    Oh, I love to go out fishing
    In a river or a creek
    But I don't enjoy it half as much
    As dancing cheek to cheek

    Oh, dance with me
    I want my arm about you
    The charm about you
    Will carry me through to

    Heaven, I'm in Heaven
    And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
    And I seem to find the happiness I seek
    When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek Writer/s: Irving Berlin
