The song opens with Ayra Starr describing the immediate chemistry she feels towards the person she is addressing. Her lyrics suggest that the attraction does not remain at the level of a passing crush. Her feelings deepen as she begins to describe how much the person means to her and how difficult their absence would be.

The chorus takes that feeling further through references to heaven and angels. Ayra uses the imagery to express how highly she regards the person she is singing about.

Her lyrics also touch on the fear of losing that person, showing how quickly the attraction has grown into something deeper.

ZAYN’s verses focuses on how far he is willing to go for the person he loves, including the sacrifices he would make for the relationship. His willingness to do so reflects the song’s theme of intense devotion.

When their vocals meet again, the song feels like an exchange between two people who are equally invested. Ayra establishes the emotional intensity early, while ZAYN‘s section gives the record another voice within the same relationship.

Ayra Starr has also spoken positively about the record. During an appearance connected to the promotion of Starrgirl, she called “Heaven Baby” one of the best songs she had ever sung. She also praised ZAYN’s voice, describing it as both strong and vulnerable.

Unlike a song built around heartbreak, betrayal or a complicated romantic storyline, “Heaven Baby” stays with the early intensity of love. Its focus is the feeling of meeting someone who quickly becomes important and expressing that attachment without holding back.
