Paradise Songtext
von Dr. Feelgood

Went out walking, I recall
Me and my best girl along the wall
In the long grass, side by side
Where the big ships go gliding by
Go gliding by

Skylarks singing in the sun
Something told me she′s the one
When I looked down into her eyes
I saw pictures of paradise
Of paradise, of paradise

Every night you look so mean
Staring at your TV screen
Back when we were seventeen
You turned me 'round, Irene, Irene

Well, the days got colder, time went by
Dark cloud rising into the sky
I just sat there gazing on
Like a tower of Babylon
Of Babylon


I went wandering far from home
Left my good girl all on her own
I went back there, she got the power
Seen me through my darkest hour
My darkest hour, my darkest hour

Every night you look so mean
Staring at your TV screen
I got lost inside a dream
You brought me back, Irene, Irene

People talking, but they don′t know
Where I've been to or where I go
World keep turning, all things change
I love two girls, I ain't ashamed
I ain′t ashamed

Oh, your loving, it thrilled me so
I can′t go with you, I just can't go
Thousand highways, you don′t live twice
Only one road to paradise
To paradise, to paradise

Every night you look so mean
Staring at your TV screen
Thinking 'bout what might have been
I love you still, Irene, Irene
