Autumn in Paradise
[Verse 1]
There's a fog outside my window
There's a beggar at my door
There's a madman screaming on the street
But I don't know what for
There's a hungry, lonesome drifter
He don't fit anywhere
There's a train leaving the station
He can't afford the fare
[Chorus]
Autumn in paradise
Invisible all your life
Autumn in paradise
Who can afford the price?
[Verse 2]
There's a white carnation growing
In a garden overgrown
There's a factory that's empty
No one works there anymore
Down the street of broken families
Dreams are in the trash
A father begs forgiveness
But it's much too late for that
[Chorus]
Autumn in paradise
Invisible all your life
Autumn in paradise
Who can afford the price?
[Bridge]
If you ask me what I'm thinking
I won't tell you how I feel
I'm moving like a target
I've got nothing left to steal
There was something when you came here
There'll be nothing when you leave
A soul lacks all direction
When there's nothing to believe
[Chorus]
Autumn in paradise
Invisible all your life
Autumn in paradise
Who can afford the price?
