On the quest / For the holy Grail
  Try and live / On razor's edge
  Find a mountain / Or cross a valley
  Why bother? / It's all for sale
  True love was in her eyes
  Burning truth was on her face
  Even thought it was late at night
  Saw her once There's no mistake
  
  Now that we've found this precious place . . . .
  How do we keep from going crazy now?
  My life was leading to this day
  Watching the whole thing slip away
  It's just a fool's paradise
  It's just a fool's paradise
  It's just a fool's paradise anyhow
  
  Dirty stains / On brand new linen
  Fresh tracks / On virgin snow
  Caught a saint / While he was sinning
  People scream / What do they know
  Turn it off and find religion
  Tune it out and find a cause
  Get it up and tell the world
  Don't stop, Don't ever pause
  
  Here in this place from all our dreams
  It doesn't seem to make us better now
  If it will get us through the night
  With all our conscience still intact
  It's just a fool's paradise . . . (etc.)
  
  Two heads / Are better than one . . .
  Two hearts / Bleed so much more
  Serious / But no one laughing
  Why run / When you can crawl
  (True love around the corner--out of reach, so hard to hold)
  My life's an open letter
  Tear it up--and throw it away
