Seventh Heaven


Encaustic art by Lea Sheldan

Have you ever been in love so hard that you were floating on cloud nine? This song is about new love, true love and the dance of everything in between. Certainly, when Mark and I fell in love, it was heavenly. And I've got pictures to prove it! LOL. Here are some very old photos of when Mark and I first met. We have so many photo albums, it took three hours to hunt and scan what we needed for our blogs. I remember when we used to go to the store to develop our film after a holiday. I was lucky to have an excellent photographer around like my dad, Dan Lybarger, who took a few of these shots:


This new release has it all: charm, spice and the perfect idea of romantic love. What can I say? I write about what I know. Hahaha. My talented, older brother Russ, plays the harmonica like he's floating on another stratosphere. I strum a jazz/blues style on my Tely and Mark supplies the bass, cool and steady. With an old-school slow jazz feeling, Seventh Heaven takes you back in time. It's sweet and sexy with a little Norah Jones vibe. Here's a weird note: This song almost didn't make it on my solo album, 'Anything Goes'. It was such a simple song and I wasn't completely happy with the vocals. So I sang it again and again and again, until I was somewhat satisfied. We are our worst critics...


Anywho, I really hope you enjoy this one, because it was written with good intentions and a happy heart. Thank you to all my listeners, (there's a new one in Sao Paulo, Brazil) and those who support organic, home-grown music. Always remember - to make your life delicious, it's good to love, laugh and dance! ~*.*~ Lea Sheldan

Sing along with the lyrics below:


Seventh Heaven

There’s a place I know, where new lovers go

In each other’s arms, pouring on the charms

It’s fresh and full of spice, they want to do it twice

They found Paradise, in Seventh Heaven


How can you go wrong with an old romantic song?

Hey, you’re looking fine, got that twinkle in your eye

I never miss a chance to feel sweet romance

Let’s spend a little time in Seventh Heaven


Heaven, Seventh Heaven

It’s more than sublime in these arms of mine

It's Heaven, Seventh Heaven

I’ve got peace of mind up on Cloud Nine in Seventh Heaven


There’s a place I know, where true lovers go

A gentle, warm caress, drenched in happiness

We can do it right, later on tonight

Relax and unwind in Seventh Heaven


Heaven, Seventh Heaven

It’s more than sublime in these arms of mine

It's Heaven, Seventh Heaven

I’ve got peace of mind up on Cloud Nine in Seventh Heaven


Let’s forget the world and leave it all behind

Electrify each other and kiss till we go blind

Come a little closer and hold my body tight

We’re gonna fly to Seventh Heaven


Heaven, Seventh Heaven

Got you by my side, you won’t be denied

In Heaven, Seventh Heaven

I’ve got peace of mind up on Cloud Nine in Seventh Heaven


Oooh, Seventh Heaven, Oooh, Seventh Heaven, Oooh, I’m in Heaven
