Almost Paradise lyrics - Eric Benet (duet with Ailee)

I thought that dreams belonged to other men

'Cause each time I got close

I fall in love again

I feared my heart would beat in secrecy

I faced the nights alone

Oh, how could I have known

That all my life I only needed you

Oh, almost paradise

We're knockin' on heaven's door

Almost paradise

How could we ask for more?

I swear that I can see forever in your eyes,

Paradise

It seems like perfect love's so hard to find

I'd almost given up

You must have read my mind

And all these dreams I saved for a rainy day

They're finally coming true

I'll share them all with you

'Cause now we hold the future in our hands

Whoa, almost paradise

We're knockin' on heaven's door

Almost paradise

How could we ask for more?

I swear that I can see forever in your eyes,

Paradise

Baby in your arms

Salvation's not so far away

It's getting closer

Closer every day...

Almost paradise

We're knockin' on heaven's door

Almost paradise

How could we ask for more?

I swear that I can see forever in your eyes,

Paradise

Paradise

Paradise
