When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep
Dreams came true, oh, they never did
And the dreams that she had
Were all that she ever wanted
She dreamed of paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
No one could hear her cries
She'd drift away, drift away, drift away
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, life goes on
Even when you're gone
Life goes on, life goes on
She dreamed of paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
No one could hear her cries
She'd drift away, drift away, drift away
[Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
She'd dream of paradise
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
She'd dream of paradise
She dreamed of paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
No one could hear her cries
She'd drift away, drift away, drift away
