Lyrics
Save Paradise
c. 2012 words & music by Lenore Troia
Everyone has a heart with a special place
For the gift that the earth gave the human race
Miles of pristine sand
On the shores where life began
And this land, everybody knows what its worth
It's our own piece of heaven here on earth
But out at sea is another oil spill
And off shore another oil drill
Another barge run aground
And life in the reef and the wetlands dwindling down
And this land, everybody knows what its worth
It's our own piece of heaven here on earth
Save paradise, save paradise
If we're not wise, going to lose paradise
Together we must all take a stand
As the stewards of our own precious land
The wildlife and the birds that sing
All of nature and its living things
And this land, everybody knows what it's worth
It's our own piece of heaven here on earth
From the Atlantic to the Caribbean Seas
From the Gulf Coast to the Florida Keys
The ocean is home to all
Protect and defend we must hear its call
And this land, everybody knows what it's worth
It's our own piece of heaven here on earth
Save paradise, save paradise
If we're not wise, going to lose paradise
Save paradise, save paradise
If we're not wise, going to lose paradise
