Welcome To Paradise

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Sour milk in the saucer

And the cat won't come home

And sometimes New York City

Feels like burnin' Rome

I'm lost and I'm crazy

Too much time on my own

I'd give anything to find a heart

That can't be sold

Welcome to paradise

Here is my brave new world

And in my paradise

I'm waiting for a certain girl

Dead flowers in the darkness

Red rose wrapped in lace

Ice-cold vodka tears

Stainin' my face

My heart's growin' colder

And the things I have seen

Won't someone come and get me

Wake me from this dream

Welcome to paradise

Here is my brave new world

And in my paradise

I'm waiting for a special girl

Here in my paradise

I'm waitin' for something new

And here in my brave new world

I'm waitin' for something new

I can hear church bells ringing

White rice hits blue skies

And the blind still lead the blind

As they look for paradise

Oh yeah

Paradise

Welcome to paradise

Here is my brave new world

And here in my paradise

I'm waiting for a special girl

I'm still looking for paradise

In your eyes you seem so far away

And to find paradise

There's no price that I won't pay

(We all find paradise)

I'm still looking for paradise tonight

(We all find paradise)

And I won't find paradise

I'll make it all right

(We all find paradise)

With you and I

Comes into sight

(We all find paradise)

For you and I

For you and I

Paradise could be right

(We all find paradise)

I'm still looking for paradise tonight

(We all find paradise)

And I won't find paradise

I'll make it all right

(We all find paradise)
