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