[00:00.000] 作词 : Frey, Henley

[00:00.00]

[00:08.610]she came from providence,

[00:12.440]the one in rhode island

[00:16.200]where the old world shadows hang

[00:19.970]heavy in the air

[00:23.420]she packed her hopes and dreams

[00:27.180]like a refugee

[00:30.950]just as her father came across the sea

[00:40.270]she heard about a place people were smiling

[00:47.770]they spoke about the red man's way,

[00:51.400]and how they loved the land

[00:55.800]and they came from everywhere

[00:58.910]to the great divide

[01:02.710]seeking a place to stand

[01:06.220]or a place to hide

[01:12.270]down in the crowded bars,

[01:15.380]out for a good time,

[01:19.580]can't wait to tell you all,

[01:23.160]what it's like up there

[01:27.140]and they called it paradise

[01:30.940]i don't know why

[01:34.509]somebody laid the mountains low

[01:38.840]while the town got high

[02:06.780]then the chilly winds blew down

[02:11.110]across the desert

[02:14.910]through the canyons of the coast,

[02:18.560]to the malibu

[02:22.320]where the pretty people play,

[02:26.240]hungry for power

[02:30.700]to light their neon way

[02:33.930]and give them things to do

[02:39.510]some rich men came and raped the land,

[02:43.110]nobody caught em

[02:46.930]put up a bunch of ugly boxes, and jesus,

[02:51.390]people bought em

[02:54.730]and they called it paradise

[02:58.340]the place to be

[03:02.200]they watched the hazy sun, sinking in the sea

[03:10.200]

[04:19.130]you can leave it all behind

[04:22.910]and sail to lahaina

[04:26.790]just like the missionaries did, so many years ago

[04:34.530]they even brought a neon sign:"jesus is coming"

[04:42.180]brought the white mans burden down

[04:46.800]brought the white mans reign

[04:50.100]who will provide the grand design?

[04:53.650]what is yours and what is mine?

[04:57.650]cause there is no more new frontier

[05:01.120]we have got to make it here

[05:05.700]we satisfy our endless needs

[05:08.880]and justify our bloody deeds,

[05:12.390]in the name of destiny

[05:16.470]and the name of god

[05:22.120]and you can see them there,

[05:25.760]on sunday morning

[05:29.580]stand up and sing about

[05:33.159]what it's like up there

[05:37.220]they call it paradise

[05:40.230]i don't know why

[05:43.460]you call someplace paradise,

[05:48.200]kiss it goodbye

[05:52.200]

[06:57.100]
