Wake up in the morning So blinded by the light That I just lie and wait for the night Years of precious moments Don't add up to a day I just feel you drifting away If I see your face again With a smile that's just pretend I'll be living on the edge of paradise If you're looking for a place To enjoy my own disgrace I'll be living on the edge of paradise I don't mind believing In something I can't see But if you're not here There's nothing for me And I don't need a reason I'm gonna make you understand These words can't change The feeling at hand If I see your face again With a smile that's just pretend I'll be living on the edge of paradise If you're looking for a place To enjoy my own disgrace I'll be living on the edge of paradise Yes I know, I've got a lot of complications A lot of the time Yes I know, you've got a lot on your mind Ooh yeah So many questions With too many answers I don't need a reason When I see your face you'll understand Places, so many places Changing the faces Of the people I used to know Show me, why can't you show me? Now that you know me There's somewhere I've got to go If I see your face again With a smile that's just pretend I'll be living on the edge of paradise If you're looking for a place To enjoy my own disgrace I'll be living on the edge of paradise Your paradise, your paradise Your paradise, your paradise Yes I know, I've got a lot of complications A lot of the time Yes I know, you've got so much on your mind
