Paradise Lyrics


[Verse 1]How long you gonna make me wait
Tell me what it's gonna take
Boy you got that thing I really need
Baby give me a clue
Now I leave it up to you
Let's keep it on the low
Boy you put your trust in me
They don't need to know the truth
The way I feel for you
So watcha gonna do when my love is here for you?
[Chorus]Paradise
That's where I am
When I make love to you
Boy you take me there
This I swear
Paradise
When you touch me
In the places you do

I can't wait no more
Take me there tonight
[Verse 2]Won't you make up your mind
Thought about a thousand times
Tell me what to do to make you mine
I think about you every day
Thoughts of you won't go away
Let's keep it on the low
Boy you put your trust in me
They don't need to know the truth
The way I feel for you
So watcha gonna do when my love is here for you?
[Chorus]Paradise
That's where I am
When I make love to you
Boy you take me there
This I swear
Paradise
When you touch me
In the places you do
I can't wait no more
Take me there tonight
[C-part]It's time to tell the truth
It's time that you confess
Be honest with me baby
I know you're feeling this
Do you need for me
Like I feel for you
Tell it to me baby
So whatcha gonna do
[TQ]Wait a minute, ma, let me let you know what i'm in to
To know where I'm going
Gotta know what I've been trough
Hustler
Never been the type to sweat you
But I must admit you're looking good in your jeans, boo
Can we rendez-vous at the hotel around noon?
Can you keep a secret 'bout the things that we do?
If you can we can go to paradise, boo
Me and you
Me and you
Me and you
[Chorus]Paradise
That's where I am
When I make love to you
Boy you take me there
This I swear
Paradise
When you touch me
In the places you do
I can't wait no more
Take me there tonight

Jim Reeves (1923 - 1964), known affectionately as 'Gentleman Jim', was a country singer known for his velvety voice. Through his unique style, which fused the laidback style of crooners such as Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby with country material, he brought country music to a whole new audience. He was also one of the first to bring country music to places outside of America, gaining widespread popularity in Britain, Europe, South Africa and India.

His prolific career was cut tragically short in 1964 by a plane crash. However, even after his death, his popularity did not wane and he continued to have hits some years after his death, with previously unreleased songs and remastered earlier material.

Added 01: One interesting fact was that he recorded an album in Afrikaans for Afrikaners in South Africa. How do I know? I bought the LP many years ago.
