Paris

V1:

Eleven hours in the air

Felt good to sit in a real chair

Then I saw you over there

Beckoned me to grab a stool

Did my best to play it cool

And asked what brought you to Schilphol

On your way back to France

Back to the city of romance

Chorus:

I've never been to Paris

But since we talked

I've been wondering where the air is

Took my breath away and now I'm wishing I was on the plane

And I swear I've never felt this way

V2:

May have been the drinks

But you had me on the brink

The way you smiled with a wink

Wishing we could stay there all night

But then they called your flight

Watched as you faded out of sight

Hoping you'd turn for one last glance

Turn and snap me out of my trance

Chorus:

I've never been to Paris

But since we talked

I've been wondering where the air is

Took my breath away and now I'm wishing I was on the plane

And I swear I've never felt this way

Bridge:

I hits me that I'm jealous of that city

It gets you, while I'm in this hotel room

Got lost in your eyes, eating airport fries

Then you left for your gate, leaving me in a flustered state

Chorus:

I've never been to Paris

But since we talked

I've been wondering where the air is

Took my breath away and now I'm wishing I was on the plane

And I swear I've never felt this way
