Q&A
Moment in Paradise Lyrics
She never cried she only tried
To fly beyond her dreams
(No walls around her mind)
Deep inside she'd try to hide
That she was way beyond her means
(No borders and no lines)
She said that it's your duty to save your soul
To save it for someone
Chorus:
Moment in paradise, just a moment in paradise
Moment in paradise, just a moment in paradise
She floated out upon the wind
That blew my thoughts into the night
(She knew the things she had to know)
She drifted high above my mind
Blew my brains out did alright
(I think she knew it all along)
She said that it's your duty to save your soul
To save it for someone
Chorus: repeat
She said that it's your duty to save your soul
To save it for someone
Chorus: repeat
To fly beyond her dreams
(No walls around her mind)
Deep inside she'd try to hide
That she was way beyond her means
(No borders and no lines)
To save it for someone
Moment in paradise, just a moment in paradise
Moment in paradise, just a moment in paradise
That blew my thoughts into the night
(She knew the things she had to know)
She drifted high above my mind
Blew my brains out did alright
(I think she knew it all along)
To save it for someone
To save it for someone
