Broken boy, stone cold and far from home Sent upon a foolish sacrifice All your plans buried in desert sands Paradise comes with a price
Taxi girl, sad luck and thorazine Victim of some very bad advice Little fish caught in a silken purse Paradise comes with a price
So hold me up 'Cause I feel I'm falling apart Alone in the dark Heaven knows Take my hand 'Cause I feel I'm floating away Can we ever win? Somehow, someday
Boy and girl caught in a brutal world One more drink together alone Small surprise, they shoot the messenger Paradise almost feels like home
So hold me close 'Cause I feel I'm falling apart Alone in the dark Heaven knows Take my hand 'Cause I feel I'm floating away Can we ever win? Somehow, someday
