<b>Leavin' Paradise</b> by <i>Monte Montgomery</i><br />

Given a time, given a place

Savor each moment you can't replace

Do what you can to keep alive

'cause time has a way of passin' you by

The sound of my voice, whispers your name

With perfect timing, you shudder your shame

Enlisting fragrants and tendencies too,

Kiss like an angel like angels do

I know there's only one life

You've got live it or kiss it goodbye

Look over your shoulder, don't ask why

I can't say so long to paradise

Fleeting romances they come and they go

Like wandering gypsies in a traveling show

They do what they can, just to survive

'cause time has a way of passin' them by

And I miss you today just like yesterday

I'm never without you when your miles away

As far as redemption I could use some too

But that's not as likely as the sky is blue

I know there's only one life

You've got to live it or kissit goodbye

Look over your shoulder don't ask why

I can't say so long to paradise

So sleep well tonight and save me a place

Dream of a moment you can't replace

Do what you can just to survive

'cause time has a way of passin' you

Do all that you to keep it alive

'cause time has a way of passin you... by
