I thought that dreams belonged to other men

'Cause each time I got close, they'd fall apart again 
 Ab               Fm 
I feel my heart a-beating in secrecy 
 Db 
I face the nights alone, oh how could I have known 
                              Ebm 
In all my life I only needed you 
            Ab                                    Fm 
Oh, almost paradise we're knocking on heaven's door

And all these dreams I save for a rainy day

They're finally coming true, I'll share them all with you

It's getting closer, closer every day

Almost paradise how could we ask for more
