Lyrics

Well Terri says hello, pours a drink
Teddy?s talking sweet to the girls he just met
It?s a shadow of a life down on Ninth Street
A carnival of souls under the neon lights

And it?s another night in the Paradise
Outside the moon is full and the stars are bright
Time stands still in the Paradise

There?s a card game in the corner, black velvet on the wall
Nothing ever changes here, nothing at all
Well Freddy?s talking fast, no one listens to him
It?s a fool?s parade, and they keep on marching in

And it?s another night in the Paradise
Outside the moon is full and the stars are bright
Time stands still in the Paradise

Without hope (people stop living)
Without faith (some have nowhere to turn)
Without love (there?s just emptiness)
But it?s all there in the Paradise

Terri hands Freddy a silk red rose
He looks up at her and smiles- she knows
It?s human kindness like a heart felt kiss
No one needs more than this

And it?s another night in the Paradise
Outside the moon is full and the stars are bright
Time stands still in the Paradise
