[Verse 1]
You took me up to Heaven
Oh, when you took me in your arms
I was dazzled by your beauty
Blinded by your charms

[Chorus]
I was lost in a fool's paradise
Good and lost in a fool's paradise

[Verse 2]
Well, when you told me that you loved me
And I gave my heart to you
Oh, well, I wondered
If there could be
Any truth in love so new

[Chorus]
I was lost in a fool's paradise
Good and lost in a fool's paradise

[Bridge]
The whole world was my kingdom
And your love, the gem in my crown
But when I saw you glance at a new romance
You know my love came tumblin' down
[Verse 3]
Oh well, you treat me a kinda coolish
And you never let me know
That you think I'm being foolish
Because I love you so

[Chorus]
I'll still get lost in a fool's paradise
Good and lost in a fool's paradise

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Well, the whole world was my kingdom
And your love, the gem in my crown
But when I saw you glance at a new romance
You know my love came tumblin' down, woo

[Verse 3]
You know you treat me a kinda coolish
And you never let me know
Oh, that you think I'm being foolish
Because I love you so

[Chorus]
I'll still get lost in a fool's paradise
Lost with you in a fool's paradise
Yes, I'll still get lost in a fool's paradise
So doggone lost in a fool's paradise
