Lyrics Heaven on Earth - J. Ivy

I have to start by saying this is straight from the heart
My soul
The one I wear on my sleeve
It's my favorite tattoo
I've been tatted by truth
A simple symbol that reminds me of you

Now love letters get published by your ears
Your ears are burning
Because your name stays on my tongue
Hun, I speak it proudly
Followed by that's my baby
Cause lately I've been having revelations about our relations

(Ahhh, this is the way that heaven must feel)
You know, when I didn't think I could climb any higher
(Ahhh, never thought I'd find something so real)
I found you
The lead singer in God's choir

Girl, take my hand
Let's chit chat about our past
Sit back and rerun our laughs
Simultaneously with the screen saver that pulls up old photographs
Cause they didn't think that we would last

Look at us now
They don't know how we did it
We could give a class
Counsel
Write a book
Talk about all the hard work it took
We gave
Our love was saved
We dug deep into each other
To find out the surface hasn't even been scathed

(Ahhh, girl you're my sunshine, you light my way)
My path is so clear now
So, so clear

(Ahhh, I got to look towards the sky, like everyday)
Thank you God
You hear?
I thank you

(Ahhh, everything I asked for is wrapped up in you)
You see we don't just make love
We make life make sense

(Ahhh, when I look in your eyes, girl I know it's true)
True, the rest may rest in tense tents
That's why they sit back and wonder why our passion is so intense

(Ahhh, there's not a thing that I would not do)
Back to back we'll go to battle
I'll knuckle up
Lock and load
And fight our way out of Babel

(Ahhh, to see that we always make it through)
Even when we're the gossip topic
We'll keep God first
So we don't unravel

You see
The way I see it is
Why blow when you can whistle on it?
Tickle
Don't it?
I know you want it
I want to taunt and tease
Then please
Without the ball and chain
I've been ceased
(Yeahhh)
You feel that
(Yeahhh)
I said
Do you feel that?

Woman, you dealing with a man
So take my hand
Let's dance
We didn't meet by chance
Yeah, we met at a bar
But from the gate
I knew you were a star
Now we got a bond
Like Beverly and Bazaar

(LaLaLaLa)

And they thought it was bizarre that I chose
The pick of the litter, who could have picked any rose
But my soul's nose caught a special scent from your pheromones
Voice went baritone
(LaLaLaLa)
Who would have knew that later on
We would be sharing phones
Minutes
Time
Sharing precious time

(LaLaLaLa)

You see I made an investment
I listened to my Father in heaven
And my Heavenly Father
I heard their voices speak to me in dreams
Like sweet screams
Your spirit is so sweet
We were destined to meet
Cause we're equally yoked
Buried emotions were easily provoked
That's why nothing can destroy the power of us
You can't be cowards to be us
Our love is dipped in faith
Everyday we're tested
That devil attacks when you're restless
So at times we wrestle
We might not break up
But we make up and ask God to forgive us
Baby forgive me as I forgave you
Cause I know our demons want to keep us confused
Try to weaken and abuse
This empire's foundation
But I refuse to lose

Too many of our families get broken
Cause they don't know how to talk to one another
Communicate
The weak get conquered by hate
But we prevailed
Pitched our sail
And made a magical choice
In front of a multitude of witnesses
All I could hear
Was the story buried deep within your eyes
And the preacher's voice
We didn't jump over a broom
You see, we jumped over a room
Fell into a bed of blessings
My chest became her favorite pillow
Nightly, she falls asleep to the beat of my heart
My pulse gets memorized
As my long arms reach out
So I can rub your warm thighs

I realized that I found my balance
My comfort zone
My armor for this struggle is now on
I broke the cycle
You make the fight easier
Wiping my wounds when I come back to the corner
When I pray for you
I see a light shining so bright
That I can't help but believe that
This has got to be heaven on earth

(Heaven's got to be like this)

Love?
Huh
Baby, love is an understatement
