When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep
So she ran away in her sleep
And dreamed of Paradise every time she closed her eyes
When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth
Life goes on, it gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear a waterfall
In the night the stormy night she'll close her eyes
In the night the stormy night away she'd fly
And dreams of Paradise
She'd dream of Paradise
And so lying underneath the stormy skies
She'd say, "Oh, I know the sun must set to rise"
This could be Paradise
This could be Paradise
This could be Paradise
A song by the great Coldplay
