The Gates of Paradise (Give Praise Where Praise Is Due)

[Verse 1]
The piano won't play
And I was tired of the other place
It's time to move again now anyway
This, this is an endless parade
Yes, this is an endless parade

[Chorus 1]
The half-life is strange
Here there is constant decay
"Give praise where praise is due," I still say
Do I feel love where I used to feel hate?
Do I feel love where I used to feel hate?
Hoo!

[Verse 2]
The harmonium won't play
It just sits there all day
Just waiting on this side of Paradise
When you close your eyes, do you ever pray?

[Chorus 2]
'Cause unbelievers are strange
I loved a few, I remember their names
And you think, "If they just had a taste"
But they won't, I think
But they won't, I think
Hoo!

[Verse 3]
The summer was great
The city, it pleased us with a shower of rain
And we stopped, and we stood in the colonnade
For a while, everything was okay
For a while, everything was okay
For a while, everything was okay
For a while, everything was okay
For a while, everything was okay
For a while, everything was okay
