To One In Paradise

Alan Parsons

If I could see the sky above


And my mind could be set free


As wild white horses reached the shore


I'd stand alone and oversee





And if the bush before me burns


Should I turn my eyes away


And still the voices I can hear


As clear to me as light of day





I believed in my dreams


Nothing could change my mind


Now I know what they mean


How could I be so blind





Cold sands of time


(Winds that blow as cold as ice


Sounds that come in the night)


Shall hide what is left of me


(Come from Paradise)





I've been through times when no one cared


(Words that were mine)


I've seen clouds in empty skies


When one kind word meant more to me


(Shall last as a memory)


Than all the love in Paradise





I believed in my dreams


Nothing could change my mind


Till I found what they mean


Nothing can save me now
