Paradise
I was born and grew up in the same small town
Your neighbours never moved, even the clouds just hang around
Ah, but then you showed up, and the sky was happy to shift
You put your hand on my heart, love, and explained how life 's a gift
People are born and die every day
The sun goes up and comes down the same way
But what of the things I 've worked for that weren't but are now mine?
Those are just things, honey, you can leave them all behind
Come with me and start a new life
You can't sit around
And just wait for paradise
We 're all just hanging by a thread
That's just nonsense in your head
Your neighbours never moved, even the clouds just hang around
Ah, but then you showed up, and the sky was happy to shift
You put your hand on my heart, love, and explained how life 's a gift
People are born and die every day
The sun goes up and comes down the same way
But what of the things I 've worked for that weren't but are now mine?
Those are just things, honey, you can leave them all behind
Come with me and start a new life
You can't sit around
And just wait for paradise
We 're all just hanging by a thread
That's just nonsense in your head
