Lyrics
0:01Paradise（Album Version）－Bruce Springsteen
0:28Where the river runs to black
0:33I take the schoolbooks from your pack
0:39Plastics wire and your kiss
0:45The breath of eternity on your lips
0:51In the crowded marketplace
0:57I drift from face to face
1:02I hold my breath and close my eyes
1:08I hold my breath and close my eyes
1:14And I wait for paradise
1:20And I wait for paradise
1:37The Virginia hills have gone to brown
1:42Another day another sun goin' down
1:48I visit you in another dream
1:53I visit you in another dream
2:00I reach and feel your hair
2:05Your smell lingers in the air
2:11I brush your cheek with my fingertips
2:16I taste the void upon your lips
2:22And I wait for paradise
2:28And I wait for paradise
2:53I search for you on the other side
2:59Where the river runs clean and wide
3:05Up to my heart the waters rise
3:11Up to my heart the waters rise
3:16I sink 'neath the river cool and clear
3:22Drifting down I disappear
3:28I see you on the other side
3:33I search for the peace in your eyes
3:39But they're as empty as paradise
3:45They're as empty as paradise
4:14I break above the waves
4:19I feel the sun upon my face
Paradise（Album Version）－Bruce Springsteen Where the river runs to black I take the schoolbooks from your pack Plastics wire and your kiss The breath of eternity on your lips In the crowded marketplace I drift from face to face I hold my breath and close my eyes I hold my breath and close my eyes And I wait for paradise And I wait for paradise The Virginia hills have gone to brown Another day another sun goin' down I visit you in another dream I visit you in another dream I reach and feel your hair Your smell lingers in the air I brush your cheek with my fingertips I taste the void upon your lips And I wait for paradise And I wait for paradise I search for you on the other side Where the river runs clean and wide Up to my heart the waters rise Up to my heart the waters rise I sink 'neath the river cool and clear Drifting down I disappear I see you on the other side I search for the peace in your eyes But they're as empty as paradise They're as empty as paradise I break above the waves I feel the sun upon my face
