Paradise - Lyrics by Bette Midler


Lyrics
There is a land I know
where lovers go and flowers grow
forever more;
where time is standing still
and lovers fill the quiet places
by the shore.


We will cross the rainbow
to a place where we'll be free,
and he'll give his love to me.

So I wait for the day
when he takes me away to


Paradise.

He'll take me by my hand.

We'll walk along the sand.

It's never-never land.

Whoa-oo, whoa-oo, whoa.


We'll build a castle there
where we can share the happiness
we've waited for.

Where white flamingos fly
a-way up high and play above
the ocean floor.


We will climb a mountain
to see our wonderland.

Maybe know you'll understand
why I wait for the day
when he takes me away to


Paradise.

He'll take me by my hand.

We'll walk along the sand.
A never-never land.

Whoa-oo, whoa-oo, whoa.

I'll stand by him,
do right by him
and I swear that I would die for him.

Ohh, die for him.


Paradise.

He'll take me by my hand.

We'll walk along the sand.

It's never-never land.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.


Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'll stand by him,
do right by him.

Oh, yeah. Oh-oh, oh, yeah.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

I'm gonna stand, I'm gonna stand by him.

Gonna do right, gonna do right by him.

Oh-oh, oh-oh, yeaeaeaeaheah.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah . . .
