Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Paradise waits

On the crest of a wave

Her angels in flame

She has no pain

Like a child, she is pure

She is not to blame

[Verse 2]

Poised for flight

Wings spread bright

Spring from night

Into the sun

Don't stop to run

She can fly like a lie

She can't be outdone

[Verse 3]

Tell me the cost

I can pay, let me go

Tell me love is not lost

Sell everything

Without love, day to day

Insanity's king

[Verse 4]

I will pay (Hush)

Day by day (Ooh, yeah)

Anyway

Lock, bolt and key

[Verse 5]

Crippled but free

I was blind all the time

I was learning to see

(He-a)

[Verse 6]

Help on the way

Well, I know only this

I got you today

Don't fly away

'Cause I love what I love

And I want it that way

[Verse 7]

I will stay

One more day

Like I say

Honey, it's you

[Verse 8]

Making it too

Without love in the dream

It will never come true

(Yeah)
