Breakfast at Mickey's, make-up still on
|
Elbows on the greasy table cloth
|
One more coffee and one last cigarette
|
|
Smiling at the rain cause you hold me close
|
My best dress on underneath your old coat
|
Walking down Bleecker no one is awake yet
|
|
Still, seven hours
|
Nothing but clouds
|
It's enough to make your heart sigh
|
We should try
|
So pick me up and take me out
|
|
oo we crash into love-filled nights
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
oo we race til we're out of time
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
And now that you've taken me up so high
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
Don't let me down
|
Don't let me down
|
|
I could see the lights from the restaurant
|
I couldn't quite perfect that nonchalance
|
Paris and champagne with one brown sugar cube
|
|
And we danced while the band played 'she's not there'
|
Kissed me in the rain by the Rue Voltaire
|
It's a perfectly good way to ruin those silk shoes
|
|
Still, seven hours
|
Nothing but clouds
|
It's enough to make your heart sigh
|
We should try
|
For each other and for the lovers
|
|
oo we crash into love-filled nights
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
oo we race til we're out of time
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
And now that you've taken me up so high
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
Don't let me down
|
Don't let me down
|
|
You change and you grow
|
But we were young
|
We were young and we didn't know
|
We didn't know
|
|
oo we crash into love-filled nights
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
oo we race til we're out of time
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
And now that you've taken me up so high
|
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
|
Don't let me down
|
Don't let me down
|
