LYRICS

Verse 1
I - I wish I could fly like an angel
I - I wish I could fly like an angel does
So I raise my arms to the golden sky
But, as I spread my wings, I feel my spirit die
Falling again, falling again so hard
Falling again, falling again so hard

Chorus
My, my paradise is lost
My, my paradise is lost
Is lost, is lost …

Verse 2
I - I wish I could love like you
I - I wish I could love like you do
So I stretch my hand to your naked flame
But as I touch you there I feel the pain again
Burning away, burning away my soul
Burning away, burning away my soul

Chorus
My, my paradise is lost
My, my paradise is lost
Is lost, is lost …

Solo

Verse 3
So you push me down like you always do
Well, I’m on my knees - do you think I’m through?
Fallen again, fallen again so far
Fallen again, fallen again so far

Chorus 3
My, my paradise is lost
My, my paradise is lost
Is lost, is lost …

Chorus 4
My, my paradise is lost
My, my paradise is lost
Is lost, is lost, is lost!
