[English]

At the gate, I'm coming inside, I know that it's late

But I'm here, 'cause your body my motivation

Let's skip the talk

What if we found a way to get lost without fear?

Leave it all behind, we're escaping

If you told me that my fate was on your fingertips

Then I wouldn't believe it

I wouldn't believe it, yeah

Every kiss with you, it's like your prayer falls from my lips

Now I'm a believer

Yeah, I'm a believer

This is Heaven

And I don't know how this could get much better

Than you and me, here right now

This is Heaven

And every time I touch you, it gets better

I'm on my knees, I can't stop now

This is Heaven, yeah (this is Heaven, this is Heaven)

This is Heaven, oh (this is Heaven, this is Heaven)

This is-

Sunrise, another long night lost in your eyes

So don't blink, you're the centre of my attention, yeah

I know nothing is perfect, but this is close

So don't go, keep it coming in my direction

If you told me that my fate was on your fingertips

Then I wouldn't believe it (I wouldn't believe it)

I wouldn't believe it, yeah (I wouldn't believe it)

Every kiss with you, it's like your prayer falls from my lips

Now I'm a believer (I'm a believer)

Yeah, I'm a believer (oh)

This is Heaven

And I don't know how this could get much better (yeah)

Than you and me, here right now

This is Heaven

And every time I touch you, it gets better (keeps getting better)

I'm on my knees, I can't stop now

This is Heaven, yeah (this is Heaven, this is Heaven)

This is Heaven, oh (this is Heaven, this is Heaven)

This is Heaven, ooh-ooh

I'm a believer, oh

This is Heaven

And I don't know how this could get much better (yeah)

Than you and me, here right now

This is Heaven

And every time I touch you, it gets better (keeps getting better)

I'm on my knees, I can't stop now

This is Heaven, yeah, hey (this is Heaven, this is Heaven)

This is Heaven (this is Heaven)

I'm on my knees, I can't stop now

This is Heaven (this is Heaven, this is Heaven)

Heaven, hey (this is Heaven, this is Heaven)

This is Heaven
