Back to Paradise

We were there, once upon a time
Before we learned to read between the lines
Willing victims of our teenage dreams
Painted pictures that would never be

Don't apologize
It's a part of life
We go, we grow, we don't ask why
Cradle to the grave
Spend my lonely days out here

Thousand miles away
Tryin' to make this feel like home
Truth is, I'm afraid
That I'll never find that road
Back to paradise

It's not the words, not the sticks and stones
No, it's the loneliness that breaks your bones
If I could I'd hold the hands of time
To feel the way I felt when you were mine

Don't apologize
It's a part of life
We go, we grow, we don't ask why
Cradle to the grave
Spend my lonely days out here

Thousand miles away
Tryin' to make this feel like home
Truth is, I'm afraid
That I'll never find that road
Back to paradise
Whoa, back to paradise
Back to paradise

We split the world we knew wide open
And we spill what's left of us
Ashes and ocean

Thousand miles away
Tryin' to make this feel like home
The truth is, I'm afraid
That I'll never find that road
Back to paradise
Whoa, back to paradise

The truth is, I'm afraid
That I'll never come back home
Back to paradise
