Prisoners in Paradise (2013 Live Version) - Europe

I want to learn how to fly

I want to be respected

I want to get lucky

I want to get out of this dump

I just want to watch TV

I want to be loved

I want to be different

I want a brother and sister

I´d just rather be forgotten

I want to save the world

I want to be understood

I want to be rich

Man, I just want to be somebody

Julie´s got the word today

She lost her job just one last pay

Life don´t come easy anymore

Still strugglin´on by herself

Got a picture of Jimmy

There on the shelf

And she looks at him and says

Why did we let it go

I know that sometimes baby

We didn´t see things eye-to-eye

But I got just one question

Did we have to say goodbye

Just like prisoners in paradise

Still far from heaven´s door

We had it all but still we

Wanted more

Now I realize that I can´t

Turn back the future´s here

To stay but hey

We´re just children of tomorrow

Hangin´ on to yesterday

Jimmy still recalls the night

When he took his guitar

And headed on out

To find the big time

That was his dream

He gave up his past

And made it alright

But there´s something missin´

In his heart tonight

Sometimes what you want

Ain´t what you need

He misses drivin´ down

To the lake at night

Holdin´ his baby

In his arms so tight

Ain´t it hard to find illusions

When you´re livin´ in a memory

Just like prisoners in paradise

So close but yet so far

There will come a time

No matter who you are

When you ask yourself

Was it right or wrong

For me to turn away but hey

We´re just children of tomorrow

Hangin´ on to yesterday
