I thought that dreams belonged to other men 'Cause each time I got close, they'd fall apart again I feel my heart a-beating in secrecy I face the nights alone, oh how could I have known? In all my life I only needed you Oh, almost paradise We're knocking on heaven's door Almost paradise How could we ask for more? I swear that I could see forever in your eyes Paradise It seems like perfect love's so hard to find I'd almost given up, you must have read my mind And all these dreams I save for a rainy day They're finally coming true, I'll share them all with you 'Cause now we hold the future in our hands Oh, almost paradise We're knocking on heaven's door Almost paradise How could we ask for more? I swear that I could see forever in your eyes Paradise And in your arms salvation's not so far away It's getting closer, closer every day Almost paradise We're knocking on heaven's door Almost paradise How could we ask for more? I swear that I could see forever in your eyes Paradise, paradise Paradise
