And then she holds my hand, mm

And then I understand. mm

Her eyes afire with one desire

Then a heavenly kiss

Could I resist?

And then she dims the light, mm

And then she holds me tight. mm

Her kiss, each fond caress

They lead the way to happiness

She takes me to paradise



And then he holds my hand, mm

And then I understand. mm

His eyes afire with one desire

Then a heavenly kiss

Could I resist?

And then he dims the light, mm

And then he holds me tight. mm

Her kiss, each fond caress

They lead the way to happiness

She takes me to paradise

Paradise - Hi-Lo's

Hi-Lo's, the American duo formed in the late 1960s, delivered a distinctive blend of rock and roll and folk influences that defined their era. Their track 'Paradise' exemplifies this unique sound, characterized by a driving rhythm section and melodic vocal harmonies that became hallmarks of their discography. Alongside hits like 'Peg O' My Heart' and 'On Top Of Old Smokey,' the song captures the optimistic yet gritty spirit of their performances. The recording showcases the group's ability to craft catchy, emotionally resonant music that bridged the gap between traditional rock structures and the storytelling traditions of folk. As a staple of their catalog, 'Paradise' remains a representative example of Hi-Lo's contribution to 1960s American music, reflecting their commitment to high-energy, harmonically rich compositions that appealed to a wide audience.
