John Miles Take Me To My Heaven lyrics

What could be easy for the poor man's son
When all he wanted was a rich man's daughter?
His game was lost before it had begun
But he still had to give it a try

It wasn't long before he had to run
He'd had his share of all the fire and water
Another race that someone else had won
But he'd get rich or else he would die

Social climbing
Hoping everything has a price
Chasin' diamonds, nowhere
Thinkin' it's paradise

He's usin' any chance that he can make
He doesn't think that he can wait much longer
He'll never know how much his mind can take
But there's no way he'll let it go by

Nothing matters to him, make me a millionaire
You can hear him cryin', "Somebody take me there''
Take me to my heaven, my fantasy life
Take me to my heaven, make it tonight

Take me to my heaven, material delight
Take me to my heaven and I'll tell myself
When I'm there that I'm doin' all right


Nothing matters to him, make me a millionaire
You can hear him cryin', "Somebody take me there"
Take me to my heaven, my fantasy life
Take me to my heaven, make it tonight

Take me to my heaven
(Take me to my heaven)
Material delight
Take me to my heaven
(Take me to my heaven)
Take me tonight

Take me to my heaven
(Take me to my heaven)
My fantasy life
Take me to my heaven
(Take me to my heaven)
Take me tonight

Take me to my heaven
(Take me to my heaven)
Material delight
Take me to my heaven
(Take me to my heaven)
And I'll tell myself when I'm there
That I'm doin' all right, take me to my heaven
