Nothing But

You will have nothing but love,
Nothing but hope, blue sky above.
You will find nothing but peace,
Nothing but the sun shining on your face.

[ Chorus ]

When you open your eyes,
When you open your eyes.

You will feel nothing but free,
Nothing but trust, that's how it should be.
And one who cares about nothing but you,
Watching close by the whole night through.

[ Repeat Chorus ]

You will feel nothing but warm,
Nothing but shelter from the storm.
You will have nothing but rest,
Deep in your heart, nothing but the best.

[ Repeat Chorus ]

Nothing but love when you open your eyes.
Nothing but love when you open your eyes.

[ Repeat Chorus ]

Nothing but love when you open your eyes.
Nothing but love when you open your eyes.

[ Repeat Chorus ]

Nothing but love when you open your eyes.
Nothing but love when you open your eyes.
Nothing but love when you open your eyes.
Nothing but love when you open your eyes.
Nothing but love when you open your eyes.

Bridge To Paradise

This town is just a fake,
A place where you can't tell the devil from your brother.
Poisoned every breath you take,
It's just like one nightmare after the other.

You know, it's not too late to leave tomorrow,
'Cause I know where I'm going.

[ Chorus ]

I am building a bridge to Paradise.
I am building a bridge to Paradise.

This town you can't control,
A place that fascinates, hits you with the drama.
Don't worry now for my soul
'Cause I'm heading for a higher panorama.

You know, it's not too late for you to follow,
'Cause I know where I'm going.

[ Repeat Chorus ]

You know, it's not too late for you to follow,
'Cause I know where I'm going.

[ Repeat Chorus ]
