Like A Paradise
KenZiner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The years pass oh so slowly, now where do you belong
We had the world, in the palm of our hands
We had it all, our own promised land
I stare far out, the window and up the road
I wait for word, that can't be again I know
When you left me and now that we are apart
Now that you're gone you took with you my heart
Like a paradise - When you said forevermore
Like a paradise - The time stood still it seemed
Like a paradise - As you loved me once before
I sit and count, all the times that we made love
I know it will never be, like that once again
You touched a place, that no one else can
You made me feel, no one understands
When you left me you took with you my heart
Like a paradise - When you came into my life
Like a paradise - When time stood still it seemed
Take me tonight to the place where you wait
Like paradise, that once was our fate
I visit time, when we were always one
My lonely soul, cries out for you
I wish it could, be you forever close
For life seems a waste, where love never bleeds
When you left me and now we're apart
Now that you're gone you took with you my heart
Like a paradise - When you came into my life
Like a paradise - When you said forevermore
Like a paradise - The time stood still it seemed
Like a paradise - As you loved me once before
We had the world, in the palm of our hands
We had it all, our own promised land
Like a paradise - When you came into my life
Like a paradise - When you said forevermore
Like a paradise - The time stood still it seemed
Like a paradise - As you loved me once before
The song "Like A Paradise" by KenZiner is a melancholic ballad about lost love and reminiscing the past. The lyrics showcase the singer's feelings of despair and heartbreak as he reflects on a relationship that has ended. The opening lines, "Even now I wonder why and where you have gone, the years pas so slowly, now where do you belong," set the tone for the rest of the song, as the singer questions why his partner left and where she is now.
Throughout the song, he reminisces on the happy times they shared, recalling when they had the world in the palm of their hands and their own promised land. He remembers their physical intimacy, counting all the times they made love and acknowledging that it can never be like that again. The chorus repeats the phrase "Like a paradise" several times, which represents the euphoria and ecstasy he felt when they were together.
However, despite the longing for what once was, the reality is that they are no longer together, and the singer is left to mourn the loss of the relationship. He wishes he could go back to the time when they were always one, but now his lonely soul cries out for her. The last lines repeat the sentiment that they had it all in their own promised land, but now like a paradise, it feels like it's gone forever.
