Larry John McNally - Just Like Paradise lyrics
Your rating:
The whole city is sleeping Not me, I'm wide awake Lookin' down at the lights Man, there's people down there livin' a life Makes mine look like paradise I see you standing in the porch light Sad and waving goodbye There behind the screen door On a summer night And me behind the wheel of that old black Ford The one we drove into the ground Pedal to the floor, tryin' to give it more Tryin' to break away from that town Now here I am and The whole city is sleeping Not me, I'm wide awake Lookin' down at the lights Man, there's people down there livin' a life Makes mine look like paradise Just like paradise, just like paradise... We were driving through a rainy night Your face lit up in the passing headlights And I could see that you were far away Dreaming of another time and place That's when it hit me It's the things you love the most You end up pushing away And it ain't the times you lose It's the dreams coming true That make you most afraid The whole city is sleeping Not me, I'm wide awake Lookin' down at the lights Man, there's people down there livin' a life Makes mine look like paradise The whole world seems so small From up here high above the street Lookin' down at the light And my troubles fade into the night Like the lights into eternity
