Wake up in the morning, so blinded by the light

That I just lie and wait for the night

Years of precious moments don't add up to a day

Now I just feel you drifting away

If I see your face again, with a smile that's just pretend

I'll be living on the edge of paradise

If you're looking for place to enjoy my own disgrace

I'll be living on the edge of paradise

I don't mind believing in something I can't see 

But if your not here there's nothing for me

And I don't need a reason - I'm gonna make you understand

These words can't change the feeling at hand

If I see your face again, with a smile that's just pretend

I'll be living on the edge of paradise

If you're looking for place to enjoy my own disgrace

I'll be living on the edge of paradise

Yes I know, I've got a lot of complications - a lot of the time

Yes I know, you've got a lot on your mind

Ooh yeah

So many questions with too many answers

I don't need a reason when I see your face you'll understand

Places, so many places

Changing the faces of the people I used to know

Show me, why can't you show me?

Now that you know me. There's somewhere I've got to go

If I see your face again, with a smile that's just pretend

I'll be living on the edge of paradise

If you're looking for place to enjoy my own disgrace

I'll be living on the edge of paradise

Your paradise, your paradise

Yes I know, I've got a lot of complications - a lot of the time

Yes I know, you've got so much on your mind
