When the night falls down I 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 room You pull me close and we start to move And we're spinning with the stars above And you lift me up in a wave of love... 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 When I feel alone I 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 beginning To 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

Foi lançada como single principal em 14 de setembro de 1987 e alcançou o número 1 na Billboard Hot 100 em 5 de dezembro do mesmo ano, tornando-se o único sucesso de topo nos EUA de Belinda Carlisle.
Um mês depois, a faixa atingiu a primeira posição na UK Singles Chart, permanecendo no topo por duas semanas consecutivas.
Em 1988, a canção foi indicada ao Grammy de Melhor Performance Vocal Feminina Pop, mas acabou perdendo para o hit de Whitney Houston “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)”.
Em 2015, Carlisle gravou uma versão acústica da música, a qual foi lançada em seu álbum “Wilder Shores” (2017), que mistura arranjos acústicos com batidas globais e cânticos tradicionais Sikh.
Em 2017, o crítico Dave Fawbert da ShortList apontou que a música contém “uma das maiores mudanças de tonalidade da história da música”.
O título “Heaven Is a Place on Earth” é considerado a canção assinatura de Belinda Carlisle.
