Paragone Days Lyrics

Paragone days
Fiery eyes
The miracle life,
those days have died
I remember the way
You held me so tight
Talking bout how we saved mankind
You offered me
A love to hold
But my hands were tied
To the sky

Paragone days
Something has died
I told you lies
Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes
Paragone days
Sister I lied
I told you lies
Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes

Do you remember the day
We had to park in the field
You were telling me
We had something real
Wanted to give you a kiss
You know I had too much pride
Instead I said "Girl, my love has died"
You offered me
Your heart to hold
But my hands were tied
To the sky

Paragone days
Something has died
I told you lies
Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes
Paragone days
Sister I lied
I told you lies
Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes

Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes

Paragones days
Sister I lied
I told you lies
Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes

Paragone days
Fiery eyes
The miracle life, 
those days have died
I remember the way
You held me so tight
Talking bout how we saved mankind
You offered me
A love to hold
But my hands were tied

Paragone days
Something has died
I told you lies
Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes
Paragone days

Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes

Do you remember the day

We had something real
Wanted to give you a kiss
You know I had too much pride

You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes

Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes

Paragones days
Sister I lied
I told you lies
Now every damn day
You're the pearl that escapes from my eyes

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
