Paradise - Bruce Springsteen

"Paradise"

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

And I wait for paradise

The Virginia hills have gone to brown

Another day, another sun going down

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

I search for you on the other side

Where the river runs clean and wide

Up to my heart, the waters rise

I sink beneath 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
