Can this be heaven that I feel
Raindrops falling down
Make the sweetest sound... sweetest sound
Now that I have you
Greet the morning with a smile
Feelings within me running wild
Gray clouds in the sky
Now I have you in my life
I'm feeling things I never felt before
Now that I have you
And nothing seems to matter anymore
Now that I have you
Gentle lover, angel child
Come let me hold you for a while
Love shines from your eyes
Such a sweet surprise
Now I have you in my life
I'm feelings that I never felt before
Now that I have you
And nothing seems to matter anymore
Now that I have you

This song introduced me to the brilliance of Teena Maria, I first heard it when I was stationed in Germany in 1978. I still have it on my reel to reel. Long live the spirit of Teena Maria! 🦋🔥

Lady T dedicated this song to the late great Minnie Ripperton, it was also produced by her husband Richard Rudolph, who co-wrote the track, taken from her 1980 album Lady T

Richard Rudolph wrote this song for Minnie Riperton sadly she never got to sing it. Lady T does it justice on the album that was co-produced by Richard and dedicated to the memory of Minnie Riperton
