Paradise
Meduza Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

In the fading light, hearts collide
Shadows dance in the distance
Something just ain't right, I'm cold inside
Help me find what I'm missing

We're all scared to fly, still we try
Learn to be brave, see the other side
Won't you lead me there? Have no fear
Close your eyes, find paradise

Oh, my, my, my
There's a thousand miles between you and I
Oh, my, my, my (my, my, my)
Just a thousand miles between me and paradise

Oh, my, my, my (my, my, my)
There's a thousand miles between you and I
Oh, my, my, my (my, my, my)
Just a thousand miles between me and paradise

Oh (paradise), oh, my, my, my
Oh (paradise), oh, my, my, my
Oh (paradise), oh, my, my, my
Just a thousand miles between me and paradise

When the dark has gone, the morning's won
We're gonna feel something different
It will set you free, if you just tell me
Every secret, I'll listen

We're all scared to fly, still we try
Learn to be brave, see the other side
Won't you lead me there? Have no fear
Close your eyes, find paradise

Paradise, paradise
Close your eyes, find paradise
Paradise, paradise
Close your eyes, find para-

Oh, my, my, my
There's a thousand miles between you and I
Oh, my, my, my (my, my, my)
Just a thousand miles between me and paradise

Oh, ah, oh, my, my, my
Oh, ah, oh, my, my, my




Oh, ah, oh, my, my, my
Just a thousand miles between me and paradise

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of MEDUZA Ft. Dermot Kennedy's song Paradise touch upon the theme of spiritual or mental paradise that we all seek to attain. The sun is setting, and there is a sense of something not being right, and the singer is feeling somewhat lost. They are looking for some guidance to find their way back to the right path. The song speaks about the fear of trying new things, yet we must try to be brave to get to the other side, to see what awaits us. The song speaks about the distance between the singer and the paradise that they are searching for, and how they long to bridge the gap between the two.


The song speaks of hope and the possibility of leaving one's troubles behind, that we must tell our secrets to someone we trust so that we can set ourselves free. The song speaks of the inevitability of facing obstacles and challenges, but we must learn to be brave and face them head-on. The chorus repeats the distance between them and paradise, but there is still hope that one can find it if they close their eyes and look for it.
