lyrics

Can’t settle down
Or find my feet
It doesn’t matter what I find or who I meet
I’d roam this world
In search of you
But I’m reminded where I am

On our horizon
Just out to sea
Exotic islands, give me 10 that’s where I’ll be
The windows down
Wind in my hair
I know just where I am

We’ll have bad days
And good ones too
But despite my inconsistency... I’ll see
Just what I’ve lost
And what I’ve already got
And know that I’m on top

If you break the rules
We won’t play the fools
We’ve got a self made paradise, paradise
I am making no exceptions for you now
And though you feel betrayed
It’s your own bed you’ve made
Inside your self made paradise, paradise
I am making no exceptions for you now

And when we feel that burning sun
We’ll know that it’s our time, we’ve already begun

We’ll have bad days
And good ones too
But despite my inconsistency... I’ll see
Just what I’ve lost
And what I’ve already got
And know that I’m on top

If you break the rules
We won’t play the fools
We’ve got a self made paradise, paradise
I am making no exceptions for you now
And though you feel betrayed
It’s your own bed you’ve made
Inside your self made paradise, paradise
I am making no exceptions for you now
