I Just Want To Talk About Heaven

Her family named her Julie
She was brought by Heavens grace
Never thought that they could have a child
So Heaven’s her nickname

She was perfection at its finest
Said a young boy to this girl
He knew that he'd found Heaven
Told her she was his whole world

She blushed and smiled, without worry
Knowing trust was his strong suit
Said there's something you should know
That I'll only share with you 

She said Heaven is my nickname
It's known only to a few
He never doubted for a minute
Said she was the living proof

I just want to talk about Heaven
Her pretty eyes and auburn hair
Its not the name her daddy gave her
But it's the one she loves to hear

While perfection eludes many 
Her smile and soul keeps shining through
I love you more than life itself
He said there's Heaven…and then there's you

Finding Heaven isn't easy
Most are lost and can't be found
Yet this girl was all the proof he'd need
He thought she walked on hallowed ground

I just want to talk about Heaven
Her pretty eyes and auburn hair
Its not the name her daddy gave her
But it's the one she loves to hear

He didn't need to find forgiveness
From the love that he had found
For it went on ever endless
Till they laid him in the ground

He just wanted to talk about Heaven
Said he'd wait for her up there
Your the namesake of the place, where there are no mistakes
And eternity we'll share

He just talked about Heaven........
