Lyrics
Paradise
Where the river runs to black I take the schoolbooks from your pack Plastics, wire and your kiss The breath of eternity on your lips
In the crowded marketplace I drift from face to face I hold my breath and close my eyes I hold my breath and close my eyes
And I wait for paradise And I wait for paradise
The Virginia hills have gone to brown Another day, another sun going down I visit you in another dream I visit you in another dream
I reach and feel your hair Your smell lingers in the air I brush your cheek with my fingertips I taste the void upon your lips
And I wait for paradise And I wait for paradise
I search for you on the other side Where the river runs clean and wide Up to my heart, the waters rise Up to my heart, the waters rise
I sink beneath the river cool and clear Drifting down, I disappear I see you on the other side I search for the peace in your eyes
But they’re as empty as paradise They’re as empty as paradise
I break above the waves I feel the sun upon my face

Prevod na srpski
Raj
Tamo gde reka otiče u crnilo Uzimam školske knjige iz tvog ruksaka Plastika, žica i tvoj poljubac Dah večnosti na tvojim usnama
Na pretrpanoj pijaci Pogled mi luta s lica na lice Zadržim dah i sklopim oči Zadržim dah i sklopim oči
I čekam raj I čekam raj
Virdžinija hils se zamračio Još jedan dan, još jedno sunce zalazi Posećujem te u još jednom snu Posećujem te u još jednom snu
Pružim ruku i osetim tvoju kosu Tvoj miris se oseti u vazduhu Prelazim prstima po tvom obrazu Osećam ukus praznine na tvojim usnama
A ja čekam raj A ja čekam raj
Tražim te na drugoj strani Tamo gde reka teče čista i široka Vode se dižu do mog srca Vode se dižu do mog srca
Tonem pod reku, hladnu i bistru Potapam se, nestajem Na drugoj strani vidim te Tražim mir u tvojim očima
Ali one kao raj prazne su One kao raj prazne su
Iznad talasa lomim se Na licu osećam sunce
