Analysis of Do you know?
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earthWhen the night falls downI wait for you and you come around
And the world's alive
With the sound of kids on the street outside
When you walk into the roomYou pull me close and we start to move
And we're spinnin' with the stars above
And you lift me up in a wave of love
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
When I feel aloneI reach for you and you bring me home
When I'm lost at sea
I hear your voice and it carries me
In this world we're just beginningTo understand the miracle of living
Baby, I was afraid before
But I'm not afraid anymore
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
Heaven
Heaven
In this world we're just beginning
To understand the miracle of living
Baby, I was afraid beforeBut I'm not afraid anymore
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We'll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
