There's a strange white moon at my open window
There's a heat on the breeze tonight
I see the lights of the hotel burn in the trees
And I feel love is burning in me

I am caught in the change of a tropical rainstorm
Out there between green and blue
And it's telling me that you're so hard to forget
I'm a traveller just passing through

Asian Paradise you still haunt me
And it's so damn nice, I can tell you
I feel your burnin' in me
Asian Paradise you still haunt me
I just close my eyes I can tell you
I feel you're burnin' in me

Now the moon lies herself out on top of the water
She's a naked as we were born
And the satay and beer paralyses me here
And I'm feeling I'm already home

I am caught in the change of a tropical rainstorm
Out there between green and blue
And it's telling me that you're so hard to forget
I'm a traveller just passing through

Asian Paradise you still haunt me
And it's so damn nice, I can tell you
I feel your burnin' in me
Asian Paradise you still haunt me
I just close my eyes I can tell you
I feel you're burnin' in me

Asian Paradise you still haunt me
And it's so damn nice, I can tell you
I feel your burnin' in me
