No place better

A better place, they whisper

yet, its your arms i long to embrace.

they call it heaven,

a place above,

better than the earth we love.

if heavens better,

why does my heart ache for love i can't remake?

they say heavens a better place,

where pain will cease

but whats better than the warmth of home,

where love's release?

they speak of angels and endless skies,

yet i find my heaven in your familiar eyes.

no golden gates could ever replace the love i find in this sacred place.
