Heaven is een ballad geschreven door Bryan Adams en Jim Vallance. Het nummer werd voor het eerst uitgebracht in 1983 op de soundtrack van de film A Night in Heaven. Bryan Adams weigerde om het nummer tegelijk uit te brengen met de film en wachtte hiermee tot 1984. In dit jaar verscheen het lied op zijn eigen album Reckless.

"Heaven" is a song by the Canadian singer and songwriter Bryan Adams recorded in 1983, written by Adams and Jim Vallance. It first appeared on the A Night in Heaven soundtrack album the same year and was later included on Adams' album Reckless in 1984. It was released as the third single from Reckless and reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in June 1985, over a year and a half after the song first appeared on record. The single was certified Gold in Canada in 1985.

Heavily influenced by Journey's 1983 hit "Faithfully", the song was written while Adams served as the opening act on the band's Frontiers Tour, and features their drummer, Steve Smith. It provided Adams with his first number one single and third top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The track placed number 24 on Billboard magazine's Top Pop Singles of 1985.
