Paradise
Anthem Lights Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've never believed in love at first sight
But I believe you know when it's right
One thing's for sure feelings come and go
When the right one comes along
Your heart will know
Well the look in your eyes right now
Girl you're proving me right, right now
I'm looking at paradise tonight
I'm staring at heaven in your eyes
I truly believe you are
What I've been looking for
Beauty on the outside beauty on the inside
You're my paradise you're my, you're my, my
You're my paradise you're my, you're my, my
I'll leave my whole wide world behind
You just say the word

Never felt so high, fly like a bird
And I'm throwing my checklist out the window
I know you feel it too so girl let's go
Just look in my eyes right now
I can make you believe right now

I'm looking at paradise tonight
I'm staring at heaven in your eyes
I truly believe you are
What I've been looking for
Beauty on the outside beauty on the inside
You're my paradise you're my, you're my, my
You're my paradise you're my, you're my, my

And I ain't moving
I'd die before I lose this
This world can pass me by
'Cause I found something real
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight (C'mon)

I'm on a late flight
Looking out the window tryina see if
I can picture you dreaming
What a late night, lost in the stars
But the only thing I see you sleeping
Wishing I could be the one to tuck you in
Girl you the vision of beauty
And truly my best friend
Wait, remember when we both said yes
So much love I could feel it in my chest
Paradise lost now found
I could be your Channing, white house down
You can be my Megan Fox and transform me
Into an autobot that rise no more boring
Nights alone, waiting by the phone
Hopin' that someone would turn their
Heart into your home
But you ain't gotta worry
I'ma make your life easy
You my paradise, stay breezy!

I'm looking at paradise tonight
I'm staring at heaven in your eyes
I truly believe you are
What I've been looking for
Beauty on the outside beauty on the inside




You're my paradise you're my, you're my, my
You're my paradise you're my, you're my, my

Those lonely nights spent yearning for a connection, anxiously waiting for someone to call


Hopin' that someone would turn their
Having hope that someone would finally redirect their

Emotions and affection toward you, making you their safe haven


But you ain't gotta worry
But there is no need for concern or anxiety

Okay this is now officially my favorite song from you guys, my second favorite being Something in The Water!

Blake H.

@Anthem Lights Hey guys, I've been a huge fan of your songs, I even like you non-Christian songs that you make. Don't listen to some of these people, keep making what songs you guys want. Keep on making great songs and God Bless.

Yash Agarwal

Stop hatin' on them and just appreciate this song, it's an amazing track and just because they've added some words which apparently "they shouldn't," it doesn't make it any less.

Buzz off, haters.

Carla Howe

I'm loving these songs! I'm just getting around to listening to them, but I love them! Each one reminds me of my fiance! (I've been engaged for almost 2 weeks now and it's still so weird to say that I have a fiance! hehe) We both gave each other a shot, not really thinking that it would go anywhere. He's a country/farm boy and I am nowhere near either! haha One of my best friends is the reason we connected. She played matchmaker. ^_^ I was standoffish about guys because of my past relationships, and my fiance never really had a relationship. But, we decided to give each other a chance. I was nervous up until he picked me up. As soon as I got into his truck (he opened my door and everything-still does!) and we started talking, I wasn't nervous at all. After dinner and we were walking to the movies, I realized that I'm kind of liking him. I kept wondering how he felt about me. During the movie I was going to gauge how he felt by if he held my hand. Well, he held my hand and it was the most perfect fit ever! I didn't want the night to end. But he drove me to my house, and because he knew how I was about guys he asked if I'd like a goodnight kiss. It was perfect! And it's been that way ever since! We're getting married in July (after 3 date changes) and I couldn't be more excited to marry my best friend!! :D So thank you for sharing these songs! I love being reminded of him! <3
