Lyrics
Heaven must be missin’ an angel
Missin’ one angel, child, ’cause you’re here with me right now
(Your love is heavenly, baby
Heavenly to me, baby)
Your kiss, ah, filled with tenderness
I want all I can get of your sexiness
Showers, your love comes in showers
And every hour of the hour
You let me feel your loving power
There’s a rainbow over my shoulder
When you came, my cup runneth over
You gave me your heavenly love
And if one night you hear crying from above
It’s ’cause heaven must be missin’ an angel
Missin’ one angel, child, ’cause you’re here with me right now
(Your love is heavenly, baby
Heavenly to me, baby)
Oh, heaven (heaven)
Ooh, heaven (heaven)
Ooh, heaven (heaven)
Heaven (heaven)
Ooh I’m captured by your spell
You’re different, girl, I can tell
When you’re layin’ on my pillow, baby
Above your pretty head, there’s a halo, that’s why I know
Heaven must be missin’ an angel
Missin’ one angel, child, ’cause you’re here with me right now (Mmm ha)
(Your love is heavenly, baby
Heavenly to me, baby) Ooh my sweet little angel (Heaven)
My pretty little angel (Heaven)
I love you, love you, love you,
Love you, love you, baby, say right now
(Heaven)
Aah heaven
Must be missing an angel
(Heaven, heaven)
Missing one angel, child, ’cause you’re here with me right now (Heaven, heaven)
Oh, my heaven (Heaven)
Missin’ an angel (Heaven)
You must have slipped away along the Milky Way
It’s ’cause (your kiss) your kiss (is filled with tenderness)
You came C.O.D. on a moonbeam straight to me
Just like showers, showers (showers showers showers)
Your heavenly power gets stronger by the hour
(Heaven must be missin’ an angel)
I’m captured by your spell, oh, girl, can’t you tell
Ooh ooh
(Heaven, heaven) Ooh ooh
(Heaven, heaven) Ooh
Ooh so-so good, so-so good, so-so good, baby, mmm
Yeah
I love the way you move, I love the way you groove
Uh
Just like heaven, oh, baby
Heaven, yeah
(Heaven, heaven)
Heaven (heaven)
Ooh, my heaven (heaven)
Ooh, you’re lookin’ so good (heaven)
Oh, baby, I got to have my love, yeah (Heaven, heaven)
Need it bad, Lord, baby, yeah
I got to have my love, yeah (Heaven)
Goin’ to hold you, shake it down
Gonna shake it down, shake it right down the joint…
