[Verse 2]
Paradise is alive in the conscious of the brain
Shake away and become for one hour of the day
Piece of the passage, there from before, becomes a carousel of truth

[Chorus]
Tears fell upon the fire, fell upon desire, early in the morning
Age fell into the sea, sunset of the east, you and I are older
[Bridge]

In your heart
In the rain, I’ll watch it wash you away
In a heartbeat, in our heart’s beach
[Chorus]
Tears fell upon the fire, fell upon desire, early in the morning
Age fell into the sea, sunset of the east, you and I are older
Tears fell upon the fire, fell upon desire, early in the morning
Age fell into the sea, sunset of the east, you and I are older
