about

Paradise Lost... -John Milton

lyrics

We all have hurt
We all feel pain
We all want to dream again
Intention or accident
Damage or dark intent
We yearn for something heaven sent

CHORUS
Heaven is what we lost
Heaven is our better dream
Heaven is the albatross
Flying over everything
It shines when all is dim
It's never given up
It gives and gives again
The brightest day the shining cup

We live on streets or home
We stay shut-in or roam.
Return to sleep when day is done
We make, we prove, we do
Then done and sadly moves the setting sun... CHORUS

We find or then we lose
We give and take or choose
To learn from our own mistake

I see a place for us
Where life is more than dust
And I have come to trust... the sweetest thing... CHORUS

I see a place for us
Where life is more than dust
And I have come to trust... the sweetest thing
