Well my beating heart exploded with a mighty crash,
and my legs were shaking,
things were moving way too fast,
in the daylight hour
I don´t remember her name,
I know deep inside
my life won´t be the same,
so I´ll hold on to her memory...
She said life would be simple,
love would be so sweet,
as I held out my hand to another lonely heartbeat,
I know I must found this mysterious girl,
my whole life in turmoil,
my heart in a whirl...
So I´ll hold on, hold on, hold on, to her memory!
What you do in this side of paradise?
Trying make me pay your price,
but you don´t know the way I feel.
Is this a dream or is it real?
Like of flash of lighting she came down to me,
in a blinding moment I found I could see,
all her face in its glory, a body so tight,
I know I must find I´ll look into the night,
in the world of adventure the name of the game,
its the one that we live in no person´s the same.
So I´ll hold on, hold on, hold on, to her memory!
What you do in this side of paradise?
Trying make me pay your price,
but you don´t know the way I feel.
Is this a dream or is it real?
In my mind I´m trying to see her perfect face,
but the image has gone just a time another place,
in a blinding moment I found I could see,
Her face in its a glory it shone down on me.
Still I´ll hold on, hold on, hold on, to her...memory.
What you do in this side of paradise?
Trying make me pay your price,
but you don´t know the way I feel.
Is this a dream or is it real?
What you do in this side of paradise?
Trying make me pay your price,
but you don´t know the way I feel.
Is this a dream or is it real?
What you do in this side of paradise?
Trying make me pay your price,
but you don´t know..
no you don´t no...
Is this a dream or is it real?
What you do in this side of paradise?
Trying make me pay your price,
but you don´t know the way I feel.
Is this a dream or is it real?
