A Love Song / A Non Love Song

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

What a nice little holiday

It's 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

At least I avoided cliche

Holding nobody's hand along the Champs-Élysées

Taking my time

Breaking bread, sipping wine

Meant 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 view 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?
