Paradise Lost

(album: Comedy - 1988)

It's late an I'm drunk and my stomach
Sounds like the hot water pipes in the attic room,
And who'd have though the sky could hold
So much snow inside of it just to let it go.
So?
The stars may shine and the moon
May be blue, but what comes,
Comes from you?
I was meant to take you there
We could pack our bags and be
On our way.
Hold on to your childlike fears
All your worries, tantrums, tears
I don't need to know
So?
The stars may shine and the moon
May be blue, but what comes,
Comes from you?
So don't turn around
'cause that's paradise lost.
Don't turn away,
Mersey rose.
Nothing good could last forever.
No, don't turn around
'cause that's paradise lost.
The very place
That we chose.
Only dreams could last forever.
Hold it now,
There is something you should know
I was never turn away from you
My intentions are clear,
That's the only truth.
My only wish is never to lose.
So don't turn around
'cause that's paradise lost.
Don't turn away,
Mersey rose.
Nothing good could last forever.
And don't turn around
'cause that's paradise lost.
The very place
That we chose.
Only dreams could last forever.
Don't turn around.
Don't turn away,
Mersey rose.
Only dreams could last forever
Don't turn around.
Don't turn away,
Mersey rose.
Only dreams could last forever
Don't turn around,
'cause that's paradise lost.
Only dreams could last forever.
Don't turn away,
This paradise lost.
Nothing good could last forever.
