Lyrics

PARADISE ©2004
I?m living in this muddy water, trying to keep this dream alive,
Ain?t got no bills, ain?t got no thrills
Just what?ca see before your eyes.
My little paradise?

Now I ain?t one for complaining, when the sun doesn?t shine my way,
But everybody knows, that?s the way that it goes,
So I guess I?m here to stay.
In my little paradise?

Living in this paradise, sure ain?t what it used to be.
The walls are crumbling down, poverty all over me.
Living in this paradise, ain?t what I?d like it to be.
But all my friends are here, and living is easy and free.

Don?t ask me to leave; don?t ask me to go,
I?m gonna stay right here, X2 (in my little paradise)
(Lead break)
Don?t ask me to leave; don?t ask me to go,
I?m gonna stay right here, in my little paradise??

Now that you?ve heard my story, I hope things are a little clear,
I know it ain?t much, and maybe I?m touched,
But can?t you see I?m happy here.

In my little paradise?
