Song lyrics

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh


When she was just a girl

She expected the world

But it flew away from her reach

So she ran away in her sleep


And dreamed of para-, para-, paradise

Para-, para-, paradise

Para-, para-, paradise

Every time she closed her eyes


Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh


When she was just a girl

She expected the world

But it flew away from her reach

And the bullets catch in her teeth


Life goes on, it gets so heavy

The wheel breaks the butterfly

Every tear, a waterfall

In the night, the stormy night, she'd close her eyes

In the night, the stormy night, away she'd fly


And dream of para-, para-, paradise

Para-, para-, paradise

Para-, para-, paradise

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

She'd dream of para-, para-, paradise

Para-, para-, paradise

Para-, para-, paradise

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh


La, la-la, la-la-la

La, la-la, la-la-la

La, la-la, la-la-la, la-la

So lying underneath those stormy skies

She said, "Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, I know the sun must set to rise"


This could be para-, para-, paradise

Para-, para-, paradise

This could be para-, para-, paradise

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

This could be para-, para-paradise

Para-, para-, paradise

This could be para-, para-, paradise

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh


This could be para-, para-, paradise

This could be para-, para-, paradise

This could be para-, para-, paradise

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh


Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
