Past Paradise - Eric Roberson

I lay here at night

Trying to shake the taste

Of marathon kisses, we used to share

Seems time can heal, the mess that we made

Though my heart reminisces when others appear oh

Shackled to the bed of past paradise

Nothing seems to be pleasing to my eyes

Ever since we ran out of words to say, oh yeah

Other kisses can no longer disguise

Desires to revisit past paradise

‘I love you' is the picture I still portray

Sometimes I call, but pride makes me choke

So no words follow when you say ‘hello'

But deep in my heart, I scream out your name

Hoping to just borrow what we had before ohh

Shackled to the bed of past paradise

Nothing seems to be pleasing to my eyes

Ever since we ran out of words to say, oh yeah

Other kisses can no longer disguise

Desires to revisit past paradise

‘I love you' is the picture I still portray

When night comes around (Time goes slow)

My heart starts to pound (it wonders where you are)

No relief is found (no no no no no no no no)

Chase this endless road I travel on

Shackled to the bed of past paradise

Nothing seems to be pleasing to my eyes

Ever since we ran out of words to say.

Other kisses can no longer disguise

Desires to revisit past paradise

‘I love you' is the picture I still portray

End
