James Nrml - St. Coleridge

The evening paints the skyline red
The ocean's dead and gray
The city streets are crumbling
Beneath the flood today
And the sun will spark the fire
And the fire will fan the flames
And the flames are rising up
Up inside me everyday
And if you know what is best
What is best for everyone
Every man, woman, and child
You will all run far away

This place will steal your soul away
Take it apart day by day
Cause I know
I know
This ain't paradise

I know a place where we can go
I've seen it in my dreams
The spires pierce the golden clouds
The woods lay lush and green
And so twice five miles around
Of the sweet and fertile ground
Where the garden's bright and filled
With the cool seductive rills
I will swim the sacred seas
Cross the burning plain I'll roam
I will do most anything
So I can call this place my home

We will build a life here
We will survive
We will love our children
And watch them thrive
'Cuz this is paradise

And so twice five miles around
Of the sweet and fertile ground
Where the garden's bright and filled
With the cool seductive rills
I will swim the sacred seas
Cross the burning plain I'll roam
I will do most anything
So I can call this place my home

We will build a life here
We will survive
We will love our children
And watch them thrive
'Cuz this is paradise
