"Heaven" is a song by the Canadian singer and songwriter Bryan Adams recorded in 1983, written by Adams and Jim Vallance.

Adams was unconvinced that "Heaven" was suitable for his next studio anthology, Reckless,[3] a feeling that was echoed by producer Jimmy Iovine, who was working with Adams at the time.[three] Iovine thought the song was too 'light' for the album and recommended that Adams not include it.[three] But at the last moment, Adams changed his listen.[3]
