I thought that dreams belonged to other men
|
'Cause each time I got close
|
They'd fall apart again
|
|
I feared my heart would beat in secrecy
|
I faced the nights alone
|
Oh, how could I have known
|
That all my life I only needed you?
|
|
Oh
|
Almost paradise
|
We're knockin' on heaven's door
|
Almost paradise
|
How could we ask for more?
|
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
|
Paradise
|
|
It seems like perfect love's so hard to find
|
I'd almost given up
|
You must have read my mind
|
|
And all these dreams I saved for a rainy day
|
They're finally coming true
|
I'll share them all with you
|
'Cause now we hold the future in our hand
|
|
Oh
|
Almost paradise
|
We're knockin' on heaven's door
|
Almost paradise
|
How could we ask for more?
|
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
|
Paradise
|
|
And in your arms salvation's not so far away
|
It's getting closer
|
Closer every day
|
|
Almost paradise
|
We're knockin' on heaven's door
|
Almost paradise
|
How could we ask for more?
|
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
|
Paradise
|
|
Paradise
|
|
Paradise
|
