bryan freedman – paradise lyrics
[verse 1]
salt in my pillow
sand in my boots
a rusty spoon and laundry chutes
all leading up to a prison cell
where the breath turns shallow in a chilly h+ll
the man all laid on starched white sheets
he closes his eyes and puts up his feet
on the snowy plains of a taut white mattress
i asked him where he went and he slowly answered
[chorus 1]
“paradise, when the sun shines on me
paradise, when you bring the tea
paradise, where i’ll stay a while
a moment’s rest and small relief”
[verse 2]
in a fragrant alley on the side of the street
where the dogs all grab at scr+ps of meat
is a girl with eyes that looked like mine
’til their light was dulled by assembly lines
as i came with an offering of homemade bread
i buried the hatchet inside my head
and asked her the questions she couldn’t refuse
her light burned again with nothing to lose and she cried
[chorus 2]
“paradise, when the breeze comes through
paradise, when i’m missing you
paradise, when the air is clean
a moment’s rest and small relief”
[bridge]
have i felt the rustling of spring on the wind?
have i tasted the apple of my sin?
is the world to end with a wanton howl?
is my breath still shaky behind my scowl?
have i felt the rustling of spring on the wind?
have i tasted the apple of my sin
and laid upon a st+rdy limb
and felt the air caress my skin and cried
[chorus 3]
“paradise,” when the breeze comes through
“paradise,” when i’m missing you
“paradise,” when the air is clean
a moment’s rest and small relief
“paradise,” when the sun shines on me
“paradise,” when you bring the tea
paradise, where i’ll stay a while
a moment’s rest and small relief
[post+chorus]
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
a moment’s rest and small relief
[outro]
oh+oh+oh
