  2. Take me down
    To the paradise city
    Where the grass is green
    And the girls are pretty
    Take me home

  3. I thought that dreams belonged to other men
    'Cuz each time I got close
    They'd fall apart again

    I feared my heart would beat in secrecy
    I faced the nights alone
    Oh, how could I have known
    That all my life I only needed you

    Chorus
    Whoa-oa
    ALMOST PARADISE
    We're knocking on heaven's door
    ALMOST PARADISE
    How could we ask for more?
    I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
    Paradise

  4. Cheeseburger in paradise
    Makin' the best of every virtue and vice
    Worth every damn bit of sacrifice
    To get a cheeseburger in paradise

  5. Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
    Without thinking you lost everything that was good in your life to the toss of the dice?
    Tell me who's to blame for thinkin' twice
    No no no no 'cause I don't wanna burn in paradise.

  6. ((Is it cheesy to post a parody of my own entry? I can't resist...plus thought anyone who hasn't heard the song would get a kick out of it.))

    We've been spending most our lives
    Living in an Amish paradise.
    I've churned butter once or twice
    Living in an Amish paradise.
    It's hard work and sacrifice
    Living in an Amish paradise.
    We sell quilts at discount price
    Living in an Amish paradise."


    Song: Amish Paradise

  7. Well, it's two hearts
    And one dream
    I wouldn't trade it for anything
    And I ask the Lord every night
    For just another day in paradise

  8. Though it's cold and lonely
    in the deep dark night
    I can see paradise by the dashboard light

  9. And in the air the fireflies
    Our only light in paradise
    We'll show the world they were wrong
    And teach them all to sing along

  10. May the bird of paradise fly up your nose
    May an elephant caress you with his toes
    May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose
    May the bird of paradise fly up your nose.
