I thought that dreams belonged to other men
'Cuz each time I got close
they'd fall apart again

I feared my heart would beat in secrecy
I faced the nights alone,
oh how could I have known
That all my life I only needed you

Oh, almost paradise, we're knocking on heaven's door
Almost paradise, how could we ask for more
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise

It seems like perfect love’s so hard to find
I’d almost given up,
You must have read my mind

And all these dreams I saved for a rainy day
They're finally coming true,
I’ll share them all with you
Now we hold the future in our hands

Oh, almost paradise, we’re knocking on heaven's door
Almost paradise, how could we ask for more
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise

And in your arms salvation’s not so far away
It's getting closer, closer every day

Almost paradise, we’re knocking on heaven’s door
Almost paradise, how could we ask for more
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise, paradise, paradise
