Can you hear that sound

It's all around you and me

There's a voice

It searched and found you

What can it be?

It's like thunder and lightning

Speaking your name

And this man of fire

Could be burnt in the flame

You know what you do

What you do-

Chorus

You're breaking down paradise

And I'm the one who pays the price

Any way I play or lose

Any way that I throw the dice

You're breaking down paradise

You're breaking down paradise

You walk away

And turned the day

Into night

The cold and lonely night

Out of the silence

There's a hurricane

And all around me

It's burning again

It's burning again and again

Chorus

It's like thunder and lightning

Speaking your name

And this man of fire

Could be burnt in the flame

You know what you do

What you do-

Chorus
