Paradise

[Verse 1]
Go down to st. Augustine or a little further south
Drive the California coast build a house in a little town
Why should i if you're not here and i don't want to anyhow
Cause paradise is a lonely place in the here and now

[Verse 2]
Well I'd walked the world around with you
From sea to shining sea
I saw you wake ‘till we got old
From the day you married me
And i buried you like you asked me to
In your long white wedding gown
Now paradise is a lonely place in the here and now

[Verse 3]
I hope when i'm dead and gone if it's not too late
I will see you standing there at some pearly gate
Where the bitter ended rivers of life won't drag us down
Paradise is a the only place in the here and now

[Verse 4]
We'll hold hands and walk together
On that forever shore
When i reach your smile i'll feel better
Cause a memory is too far

[Outro]
But i'll see you in another life
Where tomorrow's never found
Paradise is the only place in the here and now
Paradise is the only place in the here and now
