dodie
a love song/a non love song
[JON]
At least I avoided cliche
Holding nobody's hand along the Champs-Élysées
Taking my time
Breaking bread, sipping wine
Made for two
It's a magical city for saps
But turn out the lights
We're too clever for that
And I know
I know we're not in love
But we'd fool this old town
With the two of us
Thoughts from the tourist
Alone
We could fall for the streets of Paris
But the Eiffel's a joke
And the punchline is me
And you know
You know it's not funny
But we'd laugh till it was
Just the two of us
Thoughts from the tourist
Alone
And I know
I know that we tried
To survive on a lie we couldn't endure
So what's just one more
Thought from the tourist
Imagining the two of us
Alone[DODIE]
Back, back
It's time to go back to you know where
But was it fun?
In the sun where you were?
Stop, no
No, you're not allowed
To think that
Unwire the good
Don't imagine what could have been
Now look at what you've done
Just a memory
Now
You, fool
How dare you trust fate
She's not that kind
You stepped off the edge
But you didn't check where you'd fall
And now look at what you've done
Just a memory
Now
Shut it down
Get it into your brain
This will all just end in flames
Where's that self control that you preach?
And now look at what we've done
Just a memory
Now
