Stranger In Paradise

STRANGER IN PARADISE - Written by Carroll Bryant

Life in the city is hard when you're down 

You reach for a helping hand

No help can be found

You pay the price for living 

That's just the way that it is

It's all take and not forgiving 

Is that the way we should live?

With you I'm able to cope with it all

I see a lot of love within your eyes

A hope

A place of understanding

You make me realize

I'm a stranger in paradise

A stranger in paradise

I'm a stranger in paradise

And baby, that's no lie

So keep me forever in your arms 

Don't ever set me free

Love will keep us safe and warm

Just you wait and see 

Time will come and time may pass

But this is here and now

Feeding off each others need

It's what love is all about 

It's all because of you

Girl, you know this is true

My hope

My chance to surviving

You make me realize

 I'm a stranger in paradise

A stranger in paradise

I'm a stranger in paradise

And baby, that's no lie

No one ever could get to me 

Like you have 

Holding you, kissing you

Listening to your laugh 

The joy of life shines on you and me

So bright and popular is your smile

It's written down for history 

I'm gonna drown in your eyes

I'm always a stranger in paradise

I'm a stranger in paradise

A stranger in paradise

And baby, that's no lie

No, baby, that's no lie

I'm a stranger ...... in paradise
