Lyrics

[PERCY] Have you ever dreamed of a town so small They roll the sidewalk up? Where the waitress spills the gossip As she fills your coffee cup? Where the post office and barbershop Are in the general store And only street is Main Street And it runs by your front door? Did you ever want to lose yourself And wander where you please? Well, you can walk a hundred miles And never leave the trees Just step outside your back door When you want to run away There's a creek that you can follow On a lazy summer day And when summer turns to autumn In the town where you are from Then the colors of paradise come... And the colors of paradise come The colors of paradise come to you And the colors of paradise come And the colors of paradise come [SHELBY] Here's a chance to win a little grill With room enough to grow [PERCY] Room to grow [SHELBY] The customers who eat here Are people that you know [PERCY] And if your cooking's terrible They will not let you down [PERCY & SHELBY] Did we mention that the Spitfire Is the only grill in town? You can own a piece of heaven Where the humming birds still hum And the colors of paradise come [PERCY] And the colors of paradise come [SHELBY] Colors of paradise come [PERCY] The colors of paradise come to you [SHELBY] Come to you [PERCY] The colors of paradise [PERCY & SHELBY] Come! And the colors of paradise come [SHELBY] The mornin' when the hickories turn golden [PERCY] When the hickories turn gold [SHELBY] And sunlight burns the maples red as fire [PERCY] Red as fire [PERCY & SHELBY] The meadow glows, the river bank is blazin' Like paradise come down to lift you higher! [PERCY] Then you look out from your front porch To see the sun go down Another night has fallen On the street of your hometown And all at once you understand That you are here to stay With roots so deep into the earth They'll never pull away [SHELBY] Never pull away! [PERCY & SHELBY] And when summer turns to autumn In the town where you are from Then the colors of paradise come... And the colors of paradise come The colors of paradise come to you And the colors of paradise come [PERCY] And the colors of paradise come [SHELBY] And the colors of paradise come [PERCY] And the colors of paradise come [SHELBY] And the colors of paradise [PERCY] And the [PERCY & SHELBY] Colors of paradise come!
