Paradise

[00:28.10] Where the river runs to black
[00:33.43] I take the schoolbooks from your pack
[00:38.90] Plastics, wire and your kiss
[00:44.83] The breath of eternity on your lips
[00:50.93] In the crowded marketplace
[00:56.94] I drift from face to face
[01:02.45] Hold my breath and close my eyes
[01:07.82] Hold my breath and close my eyes
[01:13.66] And I wait for paradise
[01:19.58] And I wait for paradise
[01:23.49]
[01:36.57] The Virginia hills have gone to brown
[01:42.09] Another day, another sun goin' down
[01:47.88] I visit you in another dream
[01:53.45] I visit you in another dream
[01:59.89] I reach and feel your hair
[02:05.25] Your smell lingers in the air
[02:10.82] I brush your cheek with my fingertips
[02:16.42] I taste the void upon your lips
[02:22.48] And I wait for paradise
[02:28.07] And I wait for paradise
[02:31.85]
[02:53.64] I search for you on the other side
[02:59.56] Where the river runs clean and wide
[03:04.95] Up to my heart the waters rise
[03:10.65] Up to my heart the waters rise
[03:15.90] I sink 'neath the water cool and clear
[03:22.27] Drifting down I disappear
[03:27.62] I see you on the other side
[03:33.47] I search for the peace in your eyes
[03:39.54] They're as empty as paradise
[03:45.19] They're as empty as paradise
[03:49.62]
[04:13.91] I break above the waves
[04:19.14] I feel the sun upon my face
[04:24.22]
