Paradise

I feel you trying

Though in my heart

I know you're lying

And though your love

For me is dying

I see you crying

It's the pain of your secret heart

Bringing you to tears

Filling you with fears

For your mind and for your soul

I touch you softly now

Borne on by hope

Until the end somehow

I am a man and I must keep my vow

I must go on

But the wall of your secret heart

Keeps my distance clear

Helps my footsteps fall

Back in line inside my mind

What's the use you turned me loose

And left me here to cry

Where's the love we talked about

Where's my sunny sky

Secret hearts and sorry tales

Will never help love grow

Spread your wings my daunted soul

The time has come to go

I will not be hurried down

Or blackened by your lies

I must go and find my dream

And live in paradise
