Lost Paradise — текст песни (Marc Almond)

Here is lost paradise
It`s here, it`s here
Lost paradise, it`s here
It`s here
Lost paradise, it`s here

It`s the toy
Broken in the sad child`s hand
The one loved so dear
The one like gold
It`s a sudden end to childhood`s wonderland
A spring that`s swiftly grown too old

Here is lost paradise
It`s here, it`s here
Lost paradise it`s here
It`s here
Lost paradise it`s here

It`s the last kiss
That`s faded on our lips
From a first love
That quickly parted
One praises to the sky
On our knees in worship
And there we`re left
Broken hearted

It`s that which escapes us
In the course of our lives
That cannot be retained
With no remembrance
It`s only melancholy that survives
Through our painful resonance

It`s happiness which passes
And leaves us behind
We couldn`t hold it for
It was too whole
We couldn`t follow our confidence
Undermined for fear of sinking
Being out of control

Here is lost paradise
It`s here, it`s here
Lost paradise it`s here
It`s here
Lost paradise it`s here

It`s a sleepy town
On the edge of the frontier
It`s a dead letter
One has read too late
It`s the last love that one believes
Sincere, a failed rendezvous
That would have sealed our fate

Here is lost paradise
It`s here, it`s here
Lost paradise it`s here
It`s here
Lost paradise it`s here
