Paradise Paroles

we will go to sleep we will see it come down again
pulled into a coil
watch my hands unfold it
should it fall apart
shaking as I hold it should I go to work
measuring the absence again

paradise and I
we will carry on now as friends
see through the daze of the winter
we are aware of each other
facing a permanent danger
how many more will we weather
how, how

both of us believe
both of us pretending
we should ever see
such a perfect ending
we will go to sleep we will see it come down again fall into the leaves
feel the season greet us again
paradise and I
we will carry on now as friends
