It's a Little More Like Heaven

It's a Little More Like Heaven - Hank Locklin

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

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've been tempted for a moment by

Your lure and magic charms

Of a fickle flame and beauty

While waltzing in her arms

I cherished memories of the

Past of friends so kind and true

But 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
