This is a completely different version of "Take Me To Heaven" by Kenny Leverett. The only thing the two versions have in common is the lyric.
Kenny, thank you so much for this beautiful heartfelt "torch song" version! :)
No need to compare the two....why would you compare a sunset to a rainbow?

Take Me To Heaven D.Rulliere/K Leverett © 2012
Spent a long time alone.... telling love I was through
Now I'll trade all my lonely for a moment with you
I'll take all the pain that loving you means
I'll take it ...and weave it right into my dreams
I'll take all the hell that I'll have to pay
If only you'll take me to heaven today
So take me inside - let me stay for a while
I just wanna hide in the curl of your smile
I'll take whenever .... make it happen somehow
I'll take forever ..fit it all into now
I'll take a maybe... I'll take now and then
If only you'll take me to heaven again
I was drained of all emotion
I guess I was lost at sea
Believing I was floating
But really I was drowning by degrees
So no matter how deep this needing you goes
To where bittersweet won't keep out the cold
I'll take it ...over the empty years
I'll take every one of these missing you tears
I'll take all the heartache you lay at my door
If only you'll take me to heaven once more
If only you'll take me to heaven once more
