Gates of Paradise

There's no turning back once you go this far
There's no retreat, no compromise
This is the night we've both been waiting for
Just take my hand and close your eyes
At the gates of paradise
We can't wait outside forever
Lightning never will strike twice
The chance will never come again
We're standing at the gates of paradise
Let's take it slow 'cause we've got lots of time
We're all alone and everything's right
Open your arms, heaven knows what we might find
There's a new world beginning tonight
At the gates of paradise
We can't wait outside forever
Lightning never will strike twice
The chance will never come again
We're standing at the gates of paradise
Oh, I can't wait, I'm gonna open every gate
I wanna feel the light I see inside your eyes
I gotta feel the fire I see inside your eyes
At the gates of paradise
We can't wait outside forever
Lightning never will strike twice
The chance will never come again
We're standing at the gates
At the gates of paradise
We can't wait outside forever
Lightning never will strike twice
The chance will never come again
We're standing at the gates of paradise
