[Verse 1:]
I thought that dreams belonged to other men
Cause each time I got close
They'd fall apart again
I feared my heart would beat in secrecy
I faced the nights alone
Oh, how could I have known
That all my life
I only needed you
[Chorus:]
Oh
Almost paradise
We're knocking on heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see
Forever in your eyes
Paradise
[Verse 2:]
It seems like perfect
Love's so hard to find
I'd almost given up
You must've read my mind
And all these dreams
I saved for a rainy day
They're finally coming true
I'll share them all with you
Cause now we hold the
Future in our hands
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Bridge:]
And in your arms
Salvation's not so far away
It's getting closer
Closer every day
[Repeat Chorus:]
Paradise
