In Paradise Lyrics & Chords By Eddie From Ohio

I woke up this morning went to pick up the mail. a routine that I always do
probably find bills and catalogues, full of junk I’d never use
as I reached in the box, I felt a sensation
I didn’t know what it could be
then I pulled out a card and looked at the postmark it said p.o. cloud 23
dear mommy and daddy, I asked god if he’d let me write a letter to you
he said he felt bad about all of the sad things he was permitted to do
so he took me to peter and he asked him to help me
'cause I was too young to write words
so I climbed on his lap and I leaned over to hear him
and this is what st. peter heard
don’t you worry, don’t you cry, don’t waste the energy wondering why
the reasons are clear, safer here in paradise
each morning I wake up and the sun it shines brightly and me and the other kids play
we eat lots of pretzels and watch lots of barney and sing-along songs all the day
and at night before bedtime I go visit grandpa who reads me a story or two
then I gather my blanket and lay off to slumber and dream about daddy and you
don’t you worry, don’t you cry, don’t waste the energy wondering why
the reasons are clear, safer here in paradise
I’ve got to get going st. peter is calling he’s gotten a job for me
he says katy you make sure the stars are all lined up
and twinkling as bright as can be
so take comfort together that I’m doing fine
just lay your tears down to rest
my spirit is there and I’ll always be with you
remembering two years the best
don’t you worry, don’t you cry, don’t waste the energy wondering why
the reasons are clear, safer here in paradise
