Paradise
RAY BLK Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I leave all my friends
Hope we meet again
Where the streets paved of gold
And we never get old
Hope youβ²re there to hold
When I dress in the morning
And you're numberβ²s not calling
After too many dreams
On the one three seat
Hope I see my friends
In Paradise, on high
Hope we meet in paradise, up in the sky
I had plans for us made
Before you had to go away (away)
God, I wish you'd stay
I had places to show ya
Broken bridge like we grove
Now you never know
We had one more night out
You left my town
Before you said, "Love, I'll see you β²round"
And we said our goodbyes
And you walk into the light
In Paradise, on high
Hope we meet in paradise, up in the sky
As long as up there is God
And Iβ²ll never have to stop
Lovin' you, lovinβ² you
In Paradise
Up in the sky
We'll be laughing in the sunshine (Hmm)
Singing songs and church rhymes
(When the world comes)
Scaling up a palm tree
Where we finally will meet
(Weβ²ll be)
Laughing in the sunshine
Singing songs and church rhymes
(Ecstasy])
Six foot deep
Six foot deep
(Hoo, hoo)
Laughing in the sunshine
(When I dress in the morning)
Singing songs and church rhymes
Laughing in the sunshine
(And your number's not calling)
Singing songs and church rhymes
Laughing in the sunshine
Singing songs and church rhymes
(Miss the sound of you speaking)
Six foot deep
Six foot deep
Oh, well I hope that youβ²ll be in
In Paradise, on high (be)
Hope we meet in paradise, up in the sky
Ah
As long as up there is God
And I'll never have to stop
Lovin' you, lovinβ² you
In Paradise
Up in the sky
Would you wait for-
Would you wait for me?
Will you wait for-
Will you wait for me?
Would you wait for-
Would you wait for me?
Will you wait for-
Will you wait for me?

When the world comes to an end
In the event of an apocalypse
And I leave all my friends
And I say my final goodbye to my friends
Hope we meet again
I hope to see my friends again
Where the streets paved of gold
In a place that's luxurious and earthly riches are abundant
And we never get old
Where we never age
Hope youβ²re there to hold
I hope that you're there for me
When I dress in the morning
Every morning when I get dressed
And you're numberβ²s not calling
If you're not calling me
Hope we speak again
I hope we can talk again in the future
After too many dreams
After dreaming too much
On the one three seat
On a specific numbered seat

Before you had to leave me
God, I wish you'd stay
I wish you didn't have to leave
I had places to show ya
I had places to take you to
Broken bridge like we grove
We had difficulties and challenges, but we stayed strong
Now you never know
Unfortunately, you'll never know
We had one more night out
We should have had one more night out together
You left my town
You left the town that we both lived in
Before you said, "Love, I'll see you β²round"
Before you said you'd see me again
And we said our goodbyes
We said our farewells
And you walk into the light
And you pass away and move on to the afterlife

When the end of the world comes
Scaling up a palm tree
Enjoying life to the fullest in heaven
Where we finally will meet
Where we'll all finally reunite in heaven

We will be
(Ecstasy])
We'll be filled with pure joy and happiness
Six foot deep
In a grave

Oh, well I hope that you'll be in heaven
