Story Behind The Song

I'm a proponent of focusing on what we want, not what we don't. If we want to create a peaceful planet, let's sing about what that looks and feels like. I also believe that we're here to midwife a new way of being; thus, the "giving birth" line. My two favorite parts of the song: 1) The lyric of the 2nd verse feels like pure powerful Truth, "When forgiveness heals the hell that we have lived in, Heaven?s here." 2) The bridge is passionate, multi-cultural. It's like middle-eastern war dissolving into peace.

Song Description

Uplifting, inspirational song that paints a picture of how our choices can create Heaven on Earth right now. I envision this song under rolling credits at the end of an uplifting movie.

Lyrics

HEAVEN'S HERE
Words and Music by Laura Derocher


When I choose well, Heaven?s here.
When I let go, Heaven?s here.
When I love those I hardly know,
Heaven?s here.

Your story connects with mine.
We are one heart and mind
giving birth (Heaven?s here),
giving birth (Heaven?s here),
giving birth (Heaven?s here)
to Heaven on Earth.

When I forgive, Heaven?s here.
When I?m forgiven, Heaven?s here.
When forgiveness heals the hell that we have lived in,
Heaven?s here.

Your story connects with mine.
We are one heart and mind
giving birth (Heaven?s here),
giving birth (Heaven?s here),
giving birth (Heaven?s here)
to Heaven on Earth.

BRIDGE:
And so it is, when we choose it to be.
Let our love infuse our destiny.
(Instrumental)

The world?s at peace. (Heaven?s here.)
All fear?s released. (Heaven?s here.)
I look at you and know it?s me I see.
(Heaven?s here.)

Your story connects with mine.
We are one heart and mind
giving birth (Heaven?s here),
giving birth (Heaven?s here),
giving birth (Heaven?s here)
to Heaven on Earth. (Heaven?s here.)

TAG:
Heaven on Earth. Heaven?s here.
Heaven on Earth. Heaven?s here.
Heaven on Earth. Heaven?s here.
