All About Eve

Paradise

Like a bird I'm living on the wing and on the run
I'm wondering if paradise was won by the gun
You gather fruit from danger trees
See more than you want to see
Too late, too late...

We didn't know what it was
And all we know is we've lost it
We threw away paradise
And all we know is we've dreamt it

Will it ever come again
When you call ?
So catch if angels should
Fall in your arms
For every night a reaching hand
A thousand snake mouths open wide
Too late, too late...

We didn't know what it was
And all we know is we've lost it
We threw away paradise
And all we know is we've dreamt it

Don't know where to go
Don't think you'll find it
I kneel down somewhere
So maybe they'll find me
You may have your dreams
But heaven you steal
Live by the sword
Live by the gun
Never to rest
'Til your heaven is won

We didn't know what it was
And all we know is we've lost it
We threw away paradise
And all we know is we've dreamt it

Gonna get it back
Gonna get it back

Will it ever come again...?
