Feels like in heaven...
Call it love, call it sin
It's the state I'm in
Feels like in heaven

I am blessed and obsessed
Mysterious angel
Feels like in heaven

Heaven... Wonder...
Angel... Danger...

Let's taste it and waste it
Forbidden fruit
Feels like in heaven

To measure the pleasure
To melt in emotions
Feels like in heaven

Heaven...
Feels like in heaven...

Angel... Danger...
Call it love
Feels like in heaven
Call it sin
Heaven...
Feels like in heaven

Two lovers, two sinners
A poison kiss
Feels like in heaven

Baby stay what you are
Strong propaganda
Feels like in heaven
