Sweden: Charlotte Nilsson - Take me to your heaven
Eurovision Song Contest · Eurovision Song Contest 1999 [1999]
Shadows dancin' slowly on my wall
Moonlight paintin' silver to the sound of heartbeats
Magical emotions take control
Knowin' we will meet before the night is over
Then I'm gonna make you mine
Love you 'til the end of time
Take me to your heaven
Hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven
When my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together
On a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart
I can feel your body next to mine
Reachin' for a kiss that keeps me warm and tender
Seven steps to heaven show the way
When I'm there, I give myself in sweet surrender
Then I'm gonna make you mine
Love you 'til the end of time
Take me to your heaven
Hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven
When my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together
On a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart
As dawn is breakin' there is so much more to say
So will you be my one and only
When nights are lonely?
Hold on tight forever
Take me to your heaven
Hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven
When my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together
On a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart
Oohh... So won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart
Moonlight paintin' silver to the sound of heartbeats
Magical emotions take control
Knowin' we will meet before the night is over
Then I'm gonna make you mine
Love you 'til the end of time
Take me to your heaven
Hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven
When my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together
On a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart
I can feel your body next to mine
Reachin' for a kiss that keeps me warm and tender
Seven steps to heaven show the way
When I'm there, I give myself in sweet surrender
Then I'm gonna make you mine
Love you 'til the end of time
Take me to your heaven
Hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven
When my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together
On a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart
As dawn is breakin' there is so much more to say
So will you be my one and only
When nights are lonely?
Hold on tight forever
Take me to your heaven
Hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven
When my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together
On a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart
Oohh... So won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart
