Fool's Paradise

I've got this Caribbean queen
Rubbin' in my coconut sunscreen
You'd think you'd be the last thing on my mind
I've got a beautiful ocean view
Ten thousand miles from you
So why couldn't I leave this broken heart behind?

Oh, the sunshine is dancin' on the water
Pretty girls couldn't get any hotter
If I keep tellin' myself I'm havin' the time of my life
Maybe it'll come true and I won't miss you
Welcome to a fool's paradise

Well I keep on tellin' me
There's other fish in the sea
But your memory keeps reminding me I'm wrong
There's a party 'bout every night
And I should be out doin' it upright
Instead of watchin' re-runs of Gilligan's Island all alone (all night long)

Oh, the moonlight is dancin' on the water
Pretty girls couldn't get any hotter
If I keep tellin' myself I'm havin' the time of my life
Maybe it'll come true and I won't miss you
Welcome to a fool's paradise

Oh, this time next week I'll be headed to Texas on a big jet airplane
Oh, when I get home you know this broken heart
Is gonna hit me like a hurricane

Oh, the sunshine is dancin' on the water
Pretty girls couldn't get any hotter
If I keep tellin' myself I'm havin' the time of my life
Maybe it'll come true and I won't miss you
Welcome to a fool's paradise

Maybe it'll come true and I won't miss you
Welcome to a fool's paradise
