Story behind the song

Thinking about what Paradise really means.

Lyrics

Paradise To Me
Copyright Sonny B. Bell (ASCAP)

Do you remember those bottles
That a ten cent Coke came in
Well, that’s the color of the water
In the ocean where I swim
And I can sit here in this hammock
For as lo-----ng as I please
Suckin’ on a straw in a coconut
In the misty summer breeze

Today I spent the whole day
With nothin’ more to do
Than waitin’ to watch the sun set
On a beautiful blue lagoon
I guess I’m goin’ crazy
From watchin’ the waves roll in
‘Cause right now I’d trade it all
To be in paradise again

Chorus:
Paradise to me
Was when we talked about our dreams
As you sat there on that pillow
In between my bucket seats
When the promise of our love
Stretched beyond eternity
That was paradise…
Paradise to me

Five years is such a long time
When you spend it all alone
And money can’t buy happiness
When you spend it on your own
I know you said you’d never
Ever take me back again
But maybe we can find a path
To the place we were back then

(repeat chorus)

I’m gonna pack my bags
I’m leavin’ here tonight
Please say you’ll let me take you back...
Back to paradise

(repeat chorus)
