The Door to Paradise

Verse 1

Don’t talk to me of hopes and dreams
I’ve learnt the hardest way
That nothing’s as it seems
I never asked for absolutes
Don’t need to have it all my way
I only wanted to lay down some roots
And know that you were here to stay


Chorus

There’s no use searching anymore
No point in hoping for that door to open
Into Paradise
It won’t be worth the price
When you’ve found the imperfection
That you cannot live without
And lost it all
What’s left to dream about?

Verse 2

Don’t talk to me of love and trust
I know your words are lies
And your promises are dust
I never wanted eloquence
Too bad you didn’t realise
I would have listened if you’d talked some sense
There’s such a thing as compromise

Chorus

There’s no use searching anymore
No point in hoping for that door to open
Into Paradise
I‘ve paid too high a price
When you’ve placed all your investment
In a future dividend
And lost it all
There’s nothing left to spend

Outro

Don’t talk to me of love and trust
Cause your promises all turned to dust
Don’t talk to me of hopes and dreams
Cause your truth was never what it seemed
When you lose the one
You thought you couldn’t live without
There’s nothing left to dream about
So I’m not searching anymore
I’m not waiting for that door to open
Into Paradise

I'm afraid I don't Mystery.

What exactly is the point you're trying to make?

Destiny

I've read quite a few of your songs now, and you have some real talent in lyric-writing, I think. You're very good at expressing ideas and making your rhymes seem natural and unforced.

I really like the way the outro links back to parts of both the verses and the chorus. Gives it a nice sense of continuity and completeness.

Keep it up. *nodnod* I enjoyed reading it.
