Cootes Paradise original. Lead vocal by Wayne Krawchuk. Performed by Cootes Paradise.

lyrics

Love, you’re so full of surprises,
Make me feel so good, make me feel so bad
Shake me up until I’m half crazy
Have my heart hanging by a thread

I remember the thrill of the moment
Ohh and the fire inside
Then I learned the sound of someone making promises
Is the same sound as someone telling lies
The same sound as someone telling lies

The first time my heart was broken
The first time that it all got real
The first time my heart was broken
Ohh, I felt like I was dying, like I was dying

Love you’re so hypnotizing
You can catch me in the wink of an eye
You lead me to the edge, all dizzy in the head
Push a little push, smile a little smile

I always thought you had good intentions
I always thought I had a brain in my head
Then you showed your hand in real live colours
Black and blue and Devil red
Black and blue and Devil red

Chorus

Deep in my eyes if you look you can see
All the Love Scar Blessings you gave to me
I’m walking wounded, yes I am but that’s okay
I don’t take it so seriously now, anyway
I don’t take it so seriously now anyway

Chorus
