With empty pockets and old worn out seams They say that you build them by writing your dreams And I’m one step closer now with one more fight In paradise, they tell me, that the sun shines all night And maybe I’m crazy believing that stuff But if this isn’t it, then it’s not enough
I’m too close to paradise and too close to hell And sometimes the difference is too hard to tell Now you can come with me, or I’ll go alone But I’m too close, I’m too close to ever go home again
I’m one step closer now, my heart’s growing cold But I’ll fall back in love again or so I’ve been told Trouble is with me or out the door But I’m too close, I’m too close to ever go home
I’m too close to paradise and too close to hell And sometimes the difference is too hard to tell Now you can come with me, or I’ll go alone But I’m too close to paradise, too close to let it go I’m too close to ever go I’m too close to paradise
