LA ROUX - Paradise Is You lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Walking along on a sandy beach

Everybody's laughing under cigarette trees

And the water here is crystal clear and bright

The air is rich with a Hawaiian breeze

The grass is alive with sugar weeds

And the hill tops tuck in the bay for the night

(Pre-Chorus)

And the palm trees make it feel like paradise

But without you here there's nothing nice

Cause in your eyes that's my paradise

(Chorus)

When all the roads ahead of me stop looking new

My paradise is you, my paradise is you

When everything I know is slipping out of view

My paradise is you, my paradise is you

You

My heaven is you

(Verse)

The runners run and the teasers tease

But none of these faces can set me free

And the water here is crystal clear and bright

When I compare this pleasure beach

To all the places in your eyes that I have seen

It could be anywhere if you're not by my side

(Pre-Chorus)

And the palm trees make it feel like paradise

But without you here there's nothing nice

Cause in your eyes that's my paradise

(Chorus x2)

When all the roads ahead of me stop looking new

My paradise is you, my paradise is you

When everything I know is slipping out of view

My paradise is you, my paradise is you

You

My heaven is you

My heaven is you

My heaven is you

(Instrumental break)

(Interlude)

All my love is for you

Darling it's only you who can stop my heart from crying

All my love is for you

Darling it's only you who can stop my heart from crying

(Bridge x8)

(When all the roads ahead of me stop looking new)

(My paradise is you, my paradise is you)

All my love is for you

Darling it's only you who can stop my heart from crying
