The Stranglers — Paradise lyrics

Lyrics

A man who never knew the meaning of resistance
And now the turning tide will take another prayer
And where it falls… nobody knows…
Oh paradise (oh paradise, oh paradise)
Oh paradise (oh paradise, oh paradise)
Oh paradise (oh paradise, oh paradise)
Oh paradise (oh paradise, oh paradise)
One step that takes you closer to heaven
This wave that closes on a drowning man
A man who never knew the meaning of forever
So now the turning tide will take another prayer
And where it falls… nobody goes…
To paradise (to paradise, to paradise)
Oh paradise (oh paradise, oh paradise)
Oh, oh paradise (paradise, paradise)
One prayer to paradise (paradise, paradise)
One prayer to paradise (paradise, paradise)
Oh paradise (oh paradise, oh paradise)
Oh paradise (oh paradise, oh paradise)
One step to paradise (paradise, paradise) oh paradise
