Hold me close now, hold me tight, don't let go of me tonight 
You're all I want, you're all I need 
Hold me close now, hold me tight, and don't let go of me tonight 
Sweet paradise, yeah 

How I love all of those crazy little things you've said and done for me 
You're the one for me 
Darlin', dry your eyes, I can't stand to see you cry 
Now just turn and walk away, don't look back when I say goodbye paradise 

Days go by and life goes on, I feel I've been away too long 
What I would give to be with you, days go by and life drags on 
Feel I've been away too long, for much too long, yeah 

And all the while that I'm away, don't let our love fade away 
Don't you fade away 
Now as sure as the sun is gonna shine, the day [bad word] 
Now I'm waitin' for the day, there'll be no more sayin' goodbye paradise 

My sweet paradise, you are the reason why it tears me up inside 
And I break down and cry, didn't wanna say goodbye paradise 
 [bad word]  home to you [bad word]  home to you tonight 
So hold on tight, tonight I'm on my way back home to paradise 

I'm so lost without you, I can't live without you 
I've been away too long, now, tonight I'm on my way back home to you 
My my paradise, my my paradise 
To hold you in my arms, you're all that I adore 
To see your smilin' face as I walk through the door 
I'll never say goodbye again, no
