Paradise

I've been wondering the woods in my dreams
I've been swimming in lakes of crystal clean
Water will quench my thirst
I'll lay back and let the stars do their work
My mind is a network of pulses that are twisted and tangled up
Escape to deep nature and in one day she can have me straightened up

I got to the gates of paradise one minute too late and was denied
They said come back again some other time I said ok fine

I've been walking to my own beat
I've been diving to the bottom of the deep
Catch my breath on a mountain top
Take a step into fresh air and feel the drop

I got to the gates of paradise one minute too late and was denied
They said come back again some other time I said ok fine

I've been there and I done it all
The paradise that I've been looking for
It's been in the back of my mind
And it's been there all the time
All the time
All the time
All the time

I've been catching the sun's last rays
I've been sitting by the fire that I made
Sink into a deep sleep all the inspired ideas will come to me

I got to the gates of paradise one minute too late and was denied
They said come back again some other time I said ok fine
