This bitter wind, the sting of cold is creeping in
I’m not inspired to hold you anymore
(No Pentacost, the spirit dies, my hopeless loss
As yesterday regresses into grey)
I offer you this subtle truth, I cared much more than I could prove
Your vacancy, it washes over me
(Now I’m alone, I do not feel, you’ll never know
How vulnerable I could truly be in you)
Late evening walks and memories of photographs
A picture of you in the rain
Spain in the spring and France in the autumn sun
I’m dreaming of Paris tonight
Happiness fades, my broken heart is on display
A melancholy smile to mask my pain
(Condemned to grieve but please my love don’t cry for me
We knew inside our union could not be)
But oh maybe we could find some other way
(These naked streets I long for them to set me free)
I cannot breathe, I hate to be alone
(Embrace their touch, I cannot breathe, I want to be alone)
One day maybe we could fall in love again
(You look at me but cannot see it’s not the way it’s supposed to be)
I only fear that you’ll be gone by then my friend
(I disappear, it’s oh so clear I’m already gone my friend)
Don’t say this is the end
(I fear this is the end)
Late evening walks and memories of photographs
A picture of you in the rain
Spain in the spring and France in the autumn sun
I’m dreaming of Paris tonight
Glasses of red wine, floating on the Seine
I’m dreaming of Paris tonight
