-Paradise- (from my own listening)



Hey now did I tell you

That I was going

Yes, I'm leaving

'Cause there's no room in this house

You're just too much in love with yourself

Try to play me in slow motion

Gonna make another verse and fill the ocean

With your crocodile tears from your eyes

Instead of swimming against the tide



There are better things

That a man can do

Than to waste his time

On a no good fool like you



Falling into a hole like paradise

Falling into a hole like paradise



You say that you're really sorry

But sorry don't work

When you've heard it

For the fifty-second time

You should be ready to say goodbye

Tired and you're dead and dreamin'

Baby who on earth do you think you're kidding

Don't put another record on

I'm sick of hearing the same old song



Don't wanna hear your little white lies

They can break the moon and decimate the sky



Falling into a hole like paradise

Falling into a hole like paradise



I'll be going away soon

Only time will tell

If I'll ever be back again

I'll be going away soon

Only time will tell

If I'll ever be back again



Falling into a hole like paradise

Falling into a hole like paradise
