[Verse 1]
I thought that dreams belonged to other men
Cause 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

[Chorus]
Oh, almost paradise
We're knocking on heavens door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Oh, almost paradise
We're knocking on heavens door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise
[Bridge]
And in your arms salvation's not so far away
We're getting closer, closer every day

[Chorus]
Almost paradise
We're knocking on heavens door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise
Paradise
Paradise
