you took me up to heaven , when you took me in your arms .

A B
good and lost in a fool’s paradise .

verse two : repeat above

when you told me that you loved me , i gave my heart to you .
and i wondered if there could be any truth in love so new .
i was lost in a fools paradise .
good and lost in a fool’s paradise .

chorus :

A
the whole world was my kingdom
E
and your love the gem in my crown .
B
then i saw you glance at a new romance
A
and my love came tumbling down .

verse three : repeat first

well you treat me kinda coolish and may never let me know
that you think i’m being fooling because i love you so
i’ll still get lost in a fool’s paradise .
lost with you in a fool’s paradise .
