Slow Train To Paradise - Tavares

It’s an uptight world out there

And only the strong survive

You can get burned just like that

The minute you turn your back

But I can play the game

When that’s what I have to do

I know just what to say, I got a real smooth style

I got a winning smile

But when I’m with you, I got nothing to prove (I'm with you)

I’m on a slow train to paradise

I can be myself (Be myself), oh, that’s alright

'Cause I know you’re on my side

I can lay back, I can just relax

'Cause I know I’m safe with you

I can close my eyes with your hand in mine

On a slow train to paradise, yeah

But when I’m back on the street

Oh, it begins all over again (All over again)

People bar their windows and lock their souls

Everywhere I go (Everywhere I go)

And I’m just like them

I’m out there to win

But it’s so good to know when I get home

The madness will always end

'Cause when I’m with you, I got nothing to prove (I'm with you)

I’m on a slow train to paradise

I can be myself (Be myself) and that’s alright

'Cause I know you’re on my side

I can lay back, I can just relax

'Cause I know I’m safe with you

I can close my eyes with your hand in mine

On a slow train (Slow train to paradise)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

'Cause when I’m with you, I got nothing to prove (I'm with you)

I’m on a slow train to paradise

I can be myself (Be myself) and that’s alright

'Cause I know you’re on my side (Slow train to paradise)

When I’m with you, you, you, you (I'm with you)

I’m on a slow train, yeah (Slow train to paradise)

Slow train to paradise (Be myself)

I can be myself (Slow train to paradise)
