Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Used to count my losses
Like beads on a fraying string
Woke up one tired morning
Said
"I'm done with carrying everything"
Packed up all my shadows
Left that heavy jacket on the floor
Stepped out in an old white T-shirt
Felt lighter than the day before
[Chorus]
Each step brings me closer to paradise
Closer to the boy I used to be
Every sunrise feels like it's on my side
Laughing with the wind
Yeah
It's laughing with me
I'm finally free
Finally free
Building a life full of laughter and love
I'm finally free
Finally me
Every step
One more closer to paradise above (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
I don't need some perfect picture
Got mud on these busted shoes
But I dance through every puddle
Like I've got nothing left to lose
Friends around a crooked table
Cheap wine
But the stories shine
We toast to every heartbreak
That pushed us to this better life
[Chorus]
Each step brings me closer to paradise
Closer to the man I'm meant to be
Every sunrise feels like it's on my side
Laughing with the wind
Yeah
It's laughing with me
I'm finally free
Finally free
Building a life full of laughter and love
I'm finally free
Finally me
Every step
One more closer to paradise above
[Bridge]
I used to chase some distant sky
Now it's here in your open eyes
In the small things
In the long nights
In the wrong turns that turned out right (hey!)
If this is all I ever get
You can call me the richest yet
[Chorus]
Each step brings me closer to paradise
Closer than I've ever dreamed
Every sunrise feels like it's on my side
Laughing with the wind
And it's laughing with me
I'm finally free
Finally free
Building a life full of laughter and love
I'm finally free
Finally me
Every step
One more closer to paradise above
Every breath
One more closer to paradise I love
