Lost Paradise

LOST PARADISE

Maggie said "I still remember

Summer nights counting the stars

When we fell for each other

On the hood of your car."

I swore that we'd be together

Forever I would always be right by your side.

Then you said, "Wouldn't it be pretty

Wouldn't it be nice

But you never step into the same river twice

We've been searching all over this lost paradise

You never step into the same river twice."

You said, "How I wish we were younger.

Back then we seemed so brave

These days, I wish we were stronger

Than the way we behave."

I said, "Somewhere over the rainbow,

I know there's a place for you and me.

You said Wouldn't it be pretty, wouldn't it be nice

You never step into the same river twice

It can change in a moment, in a roll of the dice

But you never step into the same river twice."

You said "How I wish things were different

Like how they used to be

The way we'd walk hand in hand down

Mulberry Street

And maybe if we keep believing

Things are gonna finally start turning around."

Then you said "Wouldn't it be pretty, wouldn't it be nice

But you never step into the same river twice

I've been searching all over this lost paradise

You never step into the same river twice

It can change in a moment, in a roll of the dice

But you never step into the same river twice

We've been looking all over this lost paradise

But you never step into the same river twice"
