This Side Of Paradise lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics This Side Of Paradise lyrics I m ridin in the back seat - nine years old Starin out the window countin the highway poles And then I get to thinkin - that it don t seem real I m flyin through the universe in a 69 oldsmobile And I wanna know what they re not tellin And I don t wanna hear no lies I just want something to believe in Ah - it s a lonely lonely road I m on This side of paradise I m ridin in the back seat - black limousine Starin out the window at a funeral scene And then I get to thinkin - and it don t seem right I m sittin here safe and sound and someone I love is gone tonight I wanna know what they re not tellin And I don t wanna hear no lies I just want something to believe in Ah - it s a lonely, lonely road we re on This side of paradise There ain t no crystal ball - there ain t no santa claus There ain t no fairy tales There ain t no streets of gold There ain t no chosen few - ya it s just me and you And that s all we got ya...that s all we got to hold on to Ya this side of paradise I remember bein a little boy in the backseat - nine years old Always askin questions - never did what I was told And then I get to thinkin like I always do We wander round in the darkness but every now and then A little light shines through I want to know what they re not telling I don t wanna hear no lies I just want something to believe in Ah - it s a lonely lonely road we re on This side of paradise song lyrics
