Paradise

Once upon a time

a lonely boy went fishin' (fishin')

Heard about a little mermaid

cast away (cast away)

Saw a little bitty fin

and started swimming (swimming)

She disappeared with

the sunlight once again (once again)

He prayed unto his father

As his lungs filled up with water

Oh won't you take me

to your paradise? (I wanna go)

Can I come play

with you under the tide? (I wanna go)

I want to swim inside

your ocean eyes (I wanna go)

Oh won't you take me

to your paradise? (I wanna go)

When he woke up

on the dry-land he saw visions (visions)

Of the life with

the mermaid cast away

(what a life, what a life it would be)

Couldn't tell if it was love

or just impatience (patience)

Headed back where the black sun hits

the waves (hits the waves)

And there she was in color

And with all his strength he called her

Oh won't you take me to your paradise?

(I wanna go)

Can I come play with you under the tide?

(I wanna go)

I want to swim inside your ocean eyes

(I wanna go)

Oh won't you take me to your paradise?

Please don't drift away

Please don't drift away

Please don't drift away

Please don't drift away

Please don't drift away

Please don't drift away

Oh won't you take me to your paradise?

(I wanna go)

Can I come play with you under the tide?

(I wanna go)

I want to swim inside your ocean eyes

(I wanna go)

Oh won't you take me to your paradise?

Oh won't you take me to your paradise?

(I wanna go)

I've got to be with you, I don't know why

(I wanna go)

Oh won't you take me to your paradise?

(I wanna go)

I've got to be with you, I've got to be with you

(I wanna go, I wanna go)

Paradise, paradise, paradise, paradise

(I wanna go)

Paradise, paradise, paradise...
