Paradise Songtext
von The Shangri‐Las

There is a land I know where lovers go
And flowers grow forevermore
Where time is standing still
And lovers fill the quiet places by the shore

We will cross a rainbow
To a place where we′ll be free
Where he'll give his love to me
So I′ll wait for the day when he'll take me away to

(Paradise) he'll take me by the hand
(Paradise) we′ll walk along in the sand in
(Paradise) a never-never land
(Paradise) whoa-whoa-whoa

We′ll build a castle there
So we can share our happiness we've waited for
While white flamingos fly up way up high
Up way above the ocean′s roar


We will climb a mountain
To see our wonderland
Maybe now you'll understand
Why I wait for the day when he takes me away to

(Paradise) he′ll take me by the hand to
(Paradise) we'll walk along the sand in
(Paradise) a never-never land
(Paradise) whoa-whoa-whoa

Stand by him (oh stand by him)
Do right by him (do right by him)
And I swear that I would die for him
(Die for him)

(Paradise) he′ll take me by the hand
(Paradise) we'll walk along in the sand in
(Paradise) a never-never land
(Paradise) come on, let's fly away to
(Paradise) I want to go away to
(Paradise) I want to go today to
