Paradise
The sun shone bright
No clouds in the sky
Just you and me in the light
We hadn't yet told any lies
But the rain came just as fast
The clouds rolled in
As the morning hours passed
And I thought to myself
Where were you when the lights went out in paradise?
When the rain fell down like all the stars?
Where were you when the world turned to ice?
When the highway ran out of cars?
I was there, I was there
But not you, not you
Do you even care?
The clouds moved in thick
I thought I'd be sick
Until there was nothing left to pick
Nothing left to say
And I thought to myself
Where were you when the lights went out in paradise?
When the rain fell down like all the stars?
Where were you when the world turned to ice?
When the highway ran out of cars?
The lights went out, the sun burned out
In paradise
In paradise
In paradise
And you weren't there
You weren't there
You weren't there
You weren't there
I wish I knew where you were
I wish I knew where you were
So at least I'd have a familiar face
When the story ends
And the moon goes down
And the sky is gone
I wish I knew where you were in paradise
No clouds in the sky
Just you and me in the light
We hadn't yet told any lies
But the rain came just as fast
The clouds rolled in
As the morning hours passed
And I thought to myself
Where were you when the lights went out in paradise?
When the rain fell down like all the stars?
Where were you when the world turned to ice?
When the highway ran out of cars?
I was there, I was there
But not you, not you
Do you even care?
The clouds moved in thick
I thought I'd be sick
Until there was nothing left to pick
Nothing left to say
And I thought to myself
Where were you when the lights went out in paradise?
When the rain fell down like all the stars?
Where were you when the world turned to ice?
When the highway ran out of cars?
The lights went out, the sun burned out
In paradise
In paradise
In paradise
And you weren't there
You weren't there
You weren't there
You weren't there
I wish I knew where you were
I wish I knew where you were
So at least I'd have a familiar face
When the story ends
And the moon goes down
And the sky is gone
I wish I knew where you were in paradise
