Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Baby, I was talkin' all night long Tryin' to take it home long distance I guess I lost my connection I heard you slip away And then it came in loud and clear You only hear what you want to hear And everybody here says Sonny boy, you're on your way There's trouble in paradise The story don't sound too nice And you just can't sleep at night In a solid gold room Well, there's trouble in paradise You never turn out those lights You just can't close your eyes In a solid gold room Baby, you've been lookin' at the future And I know you think you found it But now you want to make me a hero And put me in a shiny shoe Now I don't know where to put the blame I guess everybody needs to have a name But you never get to count the loot There's trouble in paradise The story don't sound too nice And you can't sleep sleep at night In a solid gold room Well, there's trouble in paradise And too many sleepless nights Ain't got half a pride In a solid gold room Well, there's trouble Where the warm winds won't blow And the stars don't seem to shine so bright Nearly everybody knows Nearly nobody minds You've been outside hangin' at the stage door Wavin' at the limousines (Goodbye, goodbye) It's the same Cadillac that they use In a graveyard scene Some other mornin' you go back to school As if nothing has changed Well, there's no use playin' if you're winning At a losin' game There's trouble in paradise You're payin' for everything twice Too much at half the price A little too soon Well, there's trouble in paradise You never turn out those lights And you just can't close your eyes In a solid gold room No, no you never can close your eyes In a solid gold room ooh, no No, no, no, there's trouble
