Paradise Road
Joy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come with me down paradise road
This way please, I'll carry your load
This you won't believe.
Come with me to paradise skies
Look outside and open your eyes
This you must believe.

There are better days before us
And a burning bridge behind, fire smokin' the sky is blazing,
There's a woman waiting weeping
And a young man nearly beaten all for love.
Paradise was almost closin' down.

Come with me to paradise days
It'll change your life, it'll shore change your ways
This you won't believe.
Take my hand down paradise lane
Away from heart ache with out any pain
I know 'cause I have been.

There are better days before us
And a burning bridge behind, fire smokin', the sky is blazing,
There's a woman waiting weeping
And a young man nearly beaten all for love.
Paradise was almost closin' down.

There are better days before us
And a burning bridge behind, fire smokin', the sky is blazing,
There's a woman waiting weeping
And a young man nearly beaten all for love

You must believe - you must believe this
You must believe - you must believe this




You must believe - you must believe this...
There are better days...
