Paradise

I'm singing these songs to you, and making you smile at my silliness
There's this lovely energy, that even when I wanna hide it, gets through the air

I try not to touch your hands, but they seem to come near me
and as I move away, you notice this need of one kind aproach
just an instant touch, one short encounter...

You laugh at this performance, and I think of ways to make it stop
but maybe the boose won't let me 
I can't stop doing what I wanna do
being who I wanna be

You seem to enjoy it, because maybe you know it wont last
Soon enough the song will be over, and I'll stop singing
remembering what I must accomplish
and the feeling I should be hiding

And before we know it, this other song begins
One that, instead of taking us back to that dream
makes me crash with reality as I sit and realize I already know how everything will end.

Lyrics by Coldplay
When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep
Dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth

Life goes on
It gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear, a waterfall
In the night, the stormy night
She closed her eyes
In the night, the stormy night
Away she'd fly.

And dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh

She dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

La la la La
La la la

So lying underneath those stormy skies.
She said oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
I know the sun must set to rise.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
This could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.
