We are children of paradise

When the Lord created us

All his work was through

Then the children of paradise

Did the only thing they really shouldn't do

Children of paradise

We started out there

Full of innocence in our eyes

And without a care

We are children of paradise

We knew of no crime

Until one of the meanest lies

Has changed our time

It was long ago

In the early morning glow

When it all began with Adam and Eve

They were young and free

And for all eternity

They were meant to feel

No trouble no grief

Children of paradise

We're the children of paradise

In search of the light
