A Journey to Paradise.

I can see paradise,

she isn't too far ahead.

So on this road

I will continue to tread.

 

My whole life i've waited

for the love I see,

and now I have attained

the much needed esprit.

 

I've wished and hoped,

I've cried and laughed

as i've been standing

on my lifeboat's aft.

 

Here i've been

for as long as I can remember,

but now the fire has grown

from this simmering ember.

 

Closer and closer

is my dreamland

with every step

and journey I withstand.

 

I'll stand strong

against the test of time.

For timelessness

is more than just sublime.

 

Come and dance

this path with me.

for paradise

is the only life I see.
