I should be feelin' so happy To wake up each day in the sun But I can't seem to raise a smile Since this day's begun 'Cos when you're feelin' so lonely There's just one thing you need Dark days in paradise Dark days indeed I followed her to the airport I got down on my knees But she just stood there smiling Ignoring all my pleas Then she left me so lonely It made my poor heart bleed Dark days in paradise Dark days indeed M-hm I tried drinkin' that white rum I tried some black stuff too But it don't make no difference When I'm so far from you 'Cos when you're feeling so lonely There's just one thing you need Dark days in paradise Dark days indeed Dark days in paradise Dark days indeed Dark days indeed Dark days indeed
