How could I afford to lost my grip? Clung to this fickle world that I live in Fantasize about a place I've never been When I open up my eyes I'm back again You and I move through life on a different route Comes down to the paths that we pursue Realize that it takes time to see things through What's the point of living high without a view? I long for the gold sunrise Paradise lost On a bright dawn I wanna stay up all night Paradise lost How I long for life I climbed to the top of the tallest tree To see if the clouds would open up to me Looking out I see your boat pass through the bay Coming closer now, I lie in wait You and I sing through life in a different tune But the melody's the same the whole way through In your eyes I see the sky: a Pacific blue What's the point of living high without a view? I long for the gold sunrise Paradise lost On a bright dawn I wanna stay up all night Paradise lost How I long for life I long for the gold sunrise Paradise lost On a bright dawn I wanna stay up all night Paradise lost How I long for life
