The Savage Rose Ticket to paradise Lyrics

I gave away my freedom then
For a Ticket To Paradise

They promised me a silver coin
And a Ticket To Paradise
They talked about the dream I had
The rainbow in my eyes
There would be food on the table
Enough for everyone
Someone to hold my hand
On a hill behind the sun

They promised me an orange tree
In the land of Paradise
An empty house to hide in
When the howling wind would rise
I could work for good money
Sleep all Sunday through
And I thought for a moment
Not sure of what to do
I gave away my freedom then
For a Ticket To Paradise

They promised me an easy ride
On the way to Paradise
They talked about the golden streets
And I believed their lies
They helped me with the signature
And saw me to the train
But in the darkness there I heard
The sound of iron chains
I gave away my freedom then
For a Ticket To Paradise

They promised me a silver coin
And a Ticket to Paradise
They talked about the dream I had
But now I realize
There is no joy in heaven
Only sorrow and pain
Cause in the darkness there I felt
The cold cold irons chains
I gave away my freedom then
For a Ticket To Paradise
Don't give away your freedom now
For a Ticket To Paradise
I gave away my freedom then
For a Ticket To Paradise
Don't give away your freedom now
For a Ticket To Paradise
