On the quest for the holy Grail   Try and live on razor's edge   Find a mountain or cross a valley   Why bother? It's all for sale      True love was in her eyes   Burning truth was on her face   Even though it was late at night   Saw her once, there's no mistake      Now that we've found this precious place   How do we keep from going crazy now?   My life was leading to this day   Watching the whole thing slip away      It's just a fool's paradise   It's just a fool's paradise   It's just a fool's paradise anyhow      Dirty stains on brand new linen   Fresh tracks on virgin snow   Caught a saint while he was sinning   People scream, what do they know?      Turn it off and find religion   Tune it out and find a cause   Get it up and tell the world   Don't stop, don't ever pause      Here in this place from all our dreams   It doesn't seem to make us better now   If it will get us through the night   With all our conscience still intact   It's just a fool's paradise [unverified]      Two heads are better than one   Two hearts bleed so much more   Serious, but no one laughing   Why run when you can crawl      (True love around the corner, out of reach, so hard to hold)   My life's an open letter   Tear it up and throw it away
