Almost Paradise

Song by Mike Reno and Ann Wilson for movie "Footloose". The male voice is presented in plain characters, the feminine voice is presented in italic characters and bold characters represent the parts sung by both voices.


I thought that dreams belonged to other men
'Cuz each time I got close
They'd fall apart again

I feared my heart would beat in secrecy
I faced the nights alone

Oh, how could I have known
That all my life I only needed you


*   Oh-oh, almost paradise
We're knocking on heaven's door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise


It seems like perfect love's so hard to find
I'd almost given up
You must've read my mind
And all these dreams I saved for a rainy day
They're finally comin' true

I'll share them all with you
'Cuz now we hold the future in our hands

[repeat *]

And in your arms salvation's not so far away
It's getting closer
Closer every day

[repeat *]
Paradise...
