Paroles de That's paradise

Jimmy and mary were quite a pair
Back in their younger days
They met a married in six weeks time
And that was sixty years ago this may

Four kids made a house a home
And a love for jesus kept them strong

Now every morning at 8 a.m.
Jimmy takes a drive through town
He spends his days at mary's side
At a home for the old and broken down

With a cane in his lap and a bible in his hand
He reads her stories about the promised land
And with tears in their eyes they dream of a place
Where everything changes in the light of jesus' face

And that's paradise
Hey, that's paradise
When the life breaks through and the old's made new
And the joy will never die, that's paradise
Hey hey hey

In another corner of this world
Met another man named jim
Told me how twenty years of running from god
Had finally gotten the best of him

He said all hope was gone and he wanted to die
'cause what could god do with such a messed up guy
So we talked about jesus, god's love and his plan
And when jim walked away he was a brand new man

And that's paradise
Yeah, that's paradise
When the life breaks through and the old's made new
And the joy will never die, that's paradise, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Now listen
Well, i know the best remains to be seen
In a place that's far beyond our wildest dreams
But until we see heaven, we've got jesus' word
That he'll never leave us and each prayer will be heard

And that's paradise, oh yeah
And that's paradise

And that's paradise
Yeah, that's paradise
And that's paradise
When the life breaks through and the old's made new
And the joy will never die, yeah, that's paradise

Oh, that's paradise, yeah
Oh, no no no

Oh, when the life breaks through and the old's made new
And the joy won't die, no, that's paradise

Paradise
Paradise
Paradise
Paradise
