Heaven
Divine Moments: Exploring Love and Vulnerability in Valerie Lighthart's 'Heaven'
Lyrics
I don’t know what the world knows
I am unaware of what the world is aware of.
Don’t you know where we could go?
Do you know of a place we could go?
Touch my cheek, don’t make me cry
Touch my cheek gently, don't make me cry.
Tell me that you’re really mine
Assure me that you truly belong to me.
Red is spilling all around
Red color is spreading all around, suggesting intense emotions or situations.
Take me way down to the ground
Take me down to the ground, possibly indicating a desire for intimacy or connection.
Don’t you know your voice is loud?
Your voice is powerful; be aware of its impact.
When did you go get so proud?
When did you become so proud?
Heaven

Fade into blue
Fading into the color blue, which might symbolize tranquility or melancholy.
Take me to the mountaintop
Take me to the mountaintop, seeking a metaphorical high point in the relationship.
I get scared when your voice drops
I get anxious when your voice becomes lower.
But I know our sins were small
Recognizing that our sins were minor.
And in the end we’ll be absolved
Believing that ultimately we will be forgiven or absolved.

Feeling divine in this state of bliss or happiness.
In the garden of Eden, we were young

We were sleeping ‘til the sun
We were asleep until the sun woke us, suggesting a transition from innocence to awareness.
Shook us from our altered sleep

Scorched our skin and made us weak
