John Wesley Harding - Paradise Lyrics
Everythings changed and its all for the bestAnd its all gone according to planIts out in the open and now its all overThree cheers for every woman and manTerry and julie still stand on the bridgeBut only in our memoryDont look to them to draw a conclusionJust love them and set them freeJulie hangs out by the banks of the riverWhere the garbage all flows to the seaSomethings washed up, its sacrifice to herFrom the twentieth centuryShe sees the smokestacks and she sees the cityShe sees the stadiums covered in snowThe streets have been cleaned except for the bedroomsOf all the people with nowhere to goTerry will clutch at threads where the rope wasAs hes freefalling fast to the floorBut nobody claps because nobodys watchingIts his lawyers who get all the applauseTimes on the move, and Im on the redeyeWhere Im hoping to find one more songBut its like looking for rain in the riverBetter not leave it too longTerry and julie filled out the couponAnd they won tickets tonight to the showBut its the aisles in the new stores that beckonAs they shine a divine guiding glowThe bridge through the city, it has just crumbledAnd that link is what kept them all saneThe two of them tumble into the riverForget to come up for air again
