lyrics

Paradise
Written by Lillia Auzou & John von Ahlen

Intro
It's gonna be like Paradise x2

Verse 1
We were standing at a cross road
I felt so torn apart
I was standing alone in the rain
And you were just another lonely heart

Pre Chorus
We are crossing over the rivers of life
You think the other side, would be like paradise
But we are still two very lonely hearts
Living on the other side of a bridge over water

Chorus
The time has come to let you go
Let you go
The time has come to let you go
Let you go

Verse 2
We were drifters in the dark, searching for love
Drawn to each other by the need of another
We walked into the unknown together

Repeat Pre Chorus
Repeat Chorus

Middle 8
I'm gonna let you go (x8)

Pre Chorus 2
The time has come to let you go, to let you go (x4)

Nova recorded 3 albums worth of material, but sadly only 2 singles ever saw the light of day.

Marcella Detroit was a vocalist in the band Shakespeares Sister, appeared in the BBC TV Show Absolutely Fabulous and sang backing vocals on "I've Had The Time of my Life" by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes.
