I remember too well, as I close my eyes
Of a long lost summer, far away in time
Oh you, someone I hardly knew, at all
A feeling, like no other, I've ever felt in all my life

For a single moment, the world was ours to hold
How reality gets lost, when love starts to unfold
Oh you, you an' I we both knew, the truth
Oh we could never, last forever, on two roads leading separate ways

Oh it coulda been paradise
(Coulda been paradise)
Coulda been paradise
(Coulda been paradise)

Baby you know that it coulda been paradise
(Coulda been paradise)
Coulda been paradise
- (It coulda been paradise)
- An' deep in my soul there's a place, you'll hold forever

If our paths should cross again
Maybe we could start all over
This time, we would hold on, 'til the end

Oh it coulda been paradise
(Coulda been paradise)
Coulda been paradise
(Coulda been paradise)

Baby you know that it coulda been paradise
- (Coulda been paradise)
- Still I hear your call in the night
Coulda been paradise
- (Coulda been paradise)
- Oh we both doubted could it be right
But it coulda been paradise
- (Coulda been paradise)
- Oh still I hear your call in the night
Oh-oh it coulda been paradise
