Radio Paradise (mobile)

would you trade me for all the pretty girls
all the ones who came before?
who left you broken hearted
with your back up against the wall?
would you cash in all your high times
for some lasting company?
or a warm soft breast for you to lay your head on
for all of eternity?

well if you’re holding out for something
then just reach and we’ll rise above
give me sun, give me dirt, give me water
give me sweet everlasting love

would you travel right across the world
to meet a woman that you didn’t know?
if you thought that she might be the one
to put your roots down with and grow?
would you take her hand and walk with her
through the narrow gate of life?
oh gather your load, prepare to travel the road
that’s gonna lead you from trouble and strife

well if you’re holding out for something
then just reach and we’ll rise above
give me sun, give me dirt, give me water
give me sweet...

As much as I like B.C. and like the W's it really it is not that hard to to do (stealing the show that is) ;-) [ Reply ]

I'l need to hear it again to know how to rate it, but based on my very limited hearing of it, I'd give it 8. Geez. Myself I'm starting with a more conservative 6, but I won't be surprised if I increase it on further listenings. [ Reply ]
