Pat Fortney - Paradise Lyrics

The road in front of me is on the rise
And I know I have a climb
But on the other side of that crest
Is a land said to be Paradise

Rolling green that sooths the eyes
Lined with fruitful trees and blue skies
Winding rivers and peaceful creeks
It's a land said to be Paradise

And I'm gonna climb right up that hill
And run down the other side
I hope and I pray that when I get there
I can live beneath those open skies

I'm sending out an open invitation
To anyone that wants to come along
All are welcome to join with me
The hopeful; the dreamers; the old and young

All you have to do is take the first step
Leave your cares behind and pack your things
Over that hill lies the rivers and streams
Where you can bathe in your most intimate dreams

So let's all climb right up that hill
And run down the other side
We'll dance and we'll sing amidst a beautiful scene
We'll live our lives out in Paradise

Yea, I'm gonna run right up that hill
Oh yea. I'm heading off to Paradise
Yea, I'm gonna run right up that hill
Oh yea. I'm heading off to Paradise

Let's all run right up that hill
And rush down the other side
We live out our lives in a magical place
A magical land they call paradise
