Speaking Of Heaven

Glenn Miller

Written by Jimmy Van Heusen and Mack Gordon.

As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on October 9th, 1939 with Ray Eberle.



Speaking of heaven, once I found an angel

Speaking of angels, darling, how are you?

Speaking of heaven, mind if I caress you?

Talk about starlight, your eyes twinkle, too...

You smile and I can see sunbeams

You cry and dewdrops turn to tears

You smile and though it is cloudy

A beautiful rainbow appears

Speaking of rainbows, they’re so close to heaven

Speaking of heaven, I‘ll stay close to you!
