It's a Little More Like Heaven

It's a Little More Like Heaven - Ferlin Husky/Hank Locklin/The Hushpuppies

I have sailed the peaceful water salty

Ocean deep and blue

Felt the rapture of the dawning

Thrilled through sunset's golden view

I've sought above the mountain peeks for valleys great and wide

But it's a little more like heaven by your side

It's a little more like heaven where you are

I have sought for happiness both near and far

But my search for love was through the day that I met you

Cause it's a little more like heaven where you are

I have watched the crystal raindrops fall to earth to cool the day

Watched the rainbow at twilight

When the clouds have flown away

I've adored the clinging roses round my mountain home so dear

But it's a little more like heaven when you're near

It's a little more like heaven when you' are

I have sought for happiness both near and far

But my search for love was through

The day that I met you

Cause it's a little more like heaven where you are

I've been tempted for a moment by your lure and magic charms

Of a fickle flame and beauty while waltzin' in her arms

I cherished mem'ries of the past of friends so kind and true

It's a little more like heaven here with you

It's a little more like heaven where you are

I have sought for happiness both near and far

But my search for love was through

The day that I met you

Cause it's a little more like heaven where you are
