Lyrics of Paradise by Coldplay

intro

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

verse

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep

chorus

And dreamed of para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Every time she closed her eyes

hook

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

verse

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth

pre-chorus

Life goes on, it gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear, a waterfall
In the night, the stormy night, she′d close her eyes
In the night, the stormy night, away she'd fly

chorus

And dreamed of para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
She′d dream of para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

bridge

La, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, yeah
So lying underneath those stormy skies
She said, "Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, I know the sun must set to rise"

chorus

This could be para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
This could be para-para-paradise
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
This could be para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
This could be para-, para-, paradise
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
This could be para-, para-, paradise
Para-, para-, paradise
This could be para-, para-, paradise
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

outro

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
