Paradise by Coldplay

I am a confessed fan of Coldplay. This one was actually the first music preview of their next album that gave me hope I might like it a lot and almost instantly convinced me to get it when it's released:




Paradise
(Berryman / Buckland / Champion / Martin)

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach so
She ran away in her sleep
and dreamed of
Para-para-paradise, Para-para-paradise, Para-para-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
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
She’d dream of
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh-oh

lalalalalalalalalalala
And so lying underneath those stormy skies
She’d say, "oh, ohohohoh I know the sun must set to rise"

This could be
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
This could be
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
This could be
Para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh-oh

"every passing minute"

‎"...every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around" (David, Vanilla Sky)

Yet, knowingly, we keep on wasting a bunch of them on a whole lot of stuff which comprise what we call everyday life, and with that wasting the chance, if we ever had one, of finding ourselves a real one, happiness, fulfilment, of finding whatever there is when you "turn it all around".
