Lorelei [Return to Paradise] Lyrics

{Intro}

[Verse 1]
When I think of Lorelei, my head turns all around
As gentle as a butterfly, she moves without a sound
I call her on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's movin' in and I can hardly wait

[Pre-Chorus]
The way she moves, ooh-ooh-ooh, I gotta say

[Chorus]
Lorelei, let's live together
Brighter than the stars, forever
Lorelei, let's live together
Brighter than the stars, forever
Oh baby, forever

{Bridge}

[Verse 2]
Her eyes become a paradise, she softly speaks my name
She brightens every lonely night, no one's quite the same
She calls me on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's movin' in, it's time to celebrate
[Pre-Chorus]
The way she moves, ooh-ooh-ooh, I gotta say

[Chorus]
Lorelei, let's live together
Brighter than the stars, forever
Lorelei, let's live together
Brighter than the stars, forever
Baby, baby, forever

[Chorus]
Lorelei, let's live together
(Lorelei, let's live together)
Brighter than the stars, forever
(Brighter than the stars, forever)
Lorelei, let's live together
(Lorelei, let's live together)
Brighter than the stars, forever
(Brighter than the stars, forever)
Lorelei, let's live together
(Lorelei, let's live together)
Brighter than the stars, forever
(Brighter than the stars, forever)
Lorelei, let's live together
(Lorelei, let's live together)
Brighter than the stars, forever
(Brighter than the stars, forever)
Lorelei, let's live together
(Lorelei, let's live together)

{Outro}

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
