Life is a cloud in a summer sky
It's a beautiful thing but it floats right by
The stars and moon make a lovely view
They remind me I need to make my move
So this is my goodbye

I'm going to paradise to feel life
Trying to satisfy, whoa
I've said it once or twice
But now is the time
I'm going to paradise

A diamond ring and a silver spoon
You could own the world and all that's new
The easy life and the rich man's hole
You paid your way but you lost your soul
It's time to give away

I'm going to paradise to feel life
Trying to satisfy, whoa
I've said it once or twice
But now is the time
I'm going to paradise

Sure have been dreaming about this far too long
Take a trip to the open skies, have a chance to be alone
I wonder how I'll live with less than I have
But what good is some gold when you're gray and you're old, yeah

I'm going to paradise to feel life
Trying to satisfy, whoa
I've said it once or twice
But now is the time
I'm going to paradise

I'm gonna fly away, oh
To feel the life
Trying to satisfy, whoa
But now is the time
I'm going to paradise
