All I need is a walking cane, to guide me on my way.
A hat to push away the rain, that would be okay.
Starting over to begin, I'm standing here to strong.
I never thought I'd ever see it all...
I stand to tall, but I shrink away,
I never thought I'd feel as good as the way I feel today.
So I'll run away, 'cause things aren't quite going my way.
Run away from yesterday, tomorrow we'll be free.
I slipped today but that's okay, I need a new routine.
Those who live and those who die,
shining like the sun, all trying to peak over the wall...
I stand to tall, but I shrink away,
I never thought I'd feel as good as the way I feel today.
(Chorus) When I turned on MTV,
I saw just what I wanted to be.
But that was yesterday and things aren't quite going my way...(Brandy:) (Ray-J:)
Yeah (yeah, yeah)
Yeah (paradise)
(Paradise) Yeah
(You and me) Yeah
(Brandy:)
She calls out to
The man on the street
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've
Nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere
You can tell me?"
Yeah
He walks on
Doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
Starts to whistle as
He crosses the street
Seems embarrassed
To be there
CHORUS
(Brandy and Ray-J:)
Oh think twice,
'Cause it's another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice
It's just another day for you
You and me in paradise
(Brandy:)
Umm
Yeah, think about it
Yeah (yeah)
Yeah
(Ray-J:)
She calls out to
The man on the street
He can see she's
Been crying, yeah
She's got blisters on
The soles of her feet
She can't walk
But she's trying
Repeat chorus
(Ray-J and Brandy:)
(Ooh yeah)
You and me in paradise
You and me (yeah)
Just think about it (yeah)
Yeah, just think about it
Oh yeah, think about it
(Brandy and Ray-J:)
Oh lord
Is there nothing more
Anybody can do?
Oh lord
There must be something
You can say
(Brandy:)
You can tell from
The lines on her face
You can see that
She's been there, yeah
(Ray-J:)
She's probably even
Been moved on
From every place
'Cause she didn't
Fit in there
Repeat chorus
(Ray-J:) (Brandy:)
Yeah, oh oh yeah
Oh yeah
Just think about it (yeah)
Think about it (oh yeah)
(Brandy and Ray-J:)
It's just another day
For you and me
In paradise (yeah)
It's just another day
For you and me
In paradise (yeah)
It's just another day
For you and me
In paradise
(Think about it)
(Ray-J:)
Just think about it
Think about it
Think about it
