“A Piece of Paradise”
( Lyrics By Gerald Logan )
( Verse 1 )
I found a piece of paradise down a long dark country road
Tucked back in the woods where all the evergreen trees grow
A quiet pond is waiting, the water calm and still
That’s where I take her hand and time stands still
( Pre-Chorus )
I bring her back there every chance we get
When the sky is clear and the moon is fully Lit.
( Chorus )
We lay a blanket down by the water’s side
Her head on my shoulder, my heart open wide
The stars above whisper a sweet lullaby
And I get lost in her deep blue eyes
In that hidden place, away from time
We found our piece of paradise
( Verse 2 )
Her laughter dances softly with the evening breeze
She says she feels God’s love in places like these
I hold her close, the world just fades away
Forever feels so near in her embrace
( Pre-Chorus )
I thank the Lord for every kiss we’ve shared
And the way her love is always there
( Chorus )
We lay a blanket down by the water’s side
Her head on my shoulder, my heart open wide
The stars above whisper a sweet lullaby
And I get lost in her deep blue eyes
In that hidden place, away from time
We found our piece of paradise
( Bridge )
Someday we’ll return when our hair turns gray
And remember the love that began this way
This little heaven, this sacred ground
Is where my forever love was found
( Final Chorus / Outro )
We lay a blanket down by the water’s side
Her head on my shoulder, my heart open wide
The stars above whisper a sweet lullaby
And I still get lost in her deep blue eyes
In that hidden place, away from time
We found our piece of paradise
Forever together, her hand in mine
We found our piece of paradise
