Briston Maroney
Paradise
[Verse 1]
Ain't getting younger, there's no time to waste in conversation
Kings and queens of a sun tan generation
Generally working hard and needing a p-paid vacation
Around the sun one hundred times and they want explanation
Sun-soaked sinners trying not to get caught
What's the use in being what I'm not?

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, let me tell you somethin', when you get to my age
Love is all you got, so I mean it when I say that

[Chorus]
Honestly, I wanna give you every little
Part of me and if the tide comes back
And takes me with it, I hope you know
It's not love if you can't let go
And I know I, I'm never gonna give you
Only part of my ever-lovin' laughin'
If the stars don't fade over Paradise Island
It's never gonna die if we do or die tryin'

[Verse 2]
How easy would it be to put the nine-to-five behind
A sandcastle royalty and seven seas of heaven shinin'?
Don't you find a calming, world a little scared to dive in?
Might sink, but imagine if we end up swimmin'
The sun-soaked sinners tryin' not to lose touch
Relax, rewind, no rush, but
[Pre-Chorus]
Let me tell you somethin', when you get to my age
Lovin' is the only thing that's never gonna change, oh

[Chorus]
'Cause honestly, I wanna give you every little
Part of me and if the tide comes back
And takes me with it, I hope you know
It's not love if you can't let go
And I know I, I'm never gonna give you
Only part of my ever-lovin' laughin'
If the stars don't fade over Paradise Island
It's never gonna die if we do or die tryin'

[Bridge]
Oh, oh-woah, oh, oh
Oh, woah-oh, oh, oh

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Honestly, I wanna give you every little
Part of me and if the tide comes back
And takes me with it, I hope you know
It's not love if you can't let go
And I know I, I'm never gonna give you
Only part of my ever-lovin' laughin'
If the stars don't fade over Paradise Island
It's never gonna die if we do or die tryin'
