lyrics

Have you been to Kashmir, baby
Have you been to Phoenix
Did you walk a mile across this space that is between us
Have you read a word that rose from this ragged line
Oh, baby you remind me of a brand new friend of mine

Don't think once
Don't think twice
Don't think nothing, but Paradise

Have you been to Lubbock, lady
Have you been to lonely
Did you drink a cupful of your pride and feel holy
Have you heard a single sound
Of what my song is saying
Oh, baby are you glory bound or were you only playing

Don't think once
Don't think twice
Don't think nothin, but Paradise

Have you been to desperation
Have you been to Detroit
Did you find the perfect situation to exploit
Have you found a way to pray
Have you found your perfect consort
Have you found a way to slay, baby
Did you find your passport

Don't think once
Don't think twice
Don't think nothing, but Paradise
