Midnight comes in
Paris and as
I light my cigarette
The rain it hits my face
So I start walking
Toward the Ferris wheel
From my hotel on
Champs-Élysées
For now I am alone
I might always be alone

My heart is in the city of love
But it´s raining in Paris
What good is a heart of gold
With nobody to share it with
It´s coming down, it´s coming down
My head can hardly bare it
My heart is in the city of love
But it´s raining in Paris

So let it rain on me
See my heart´s on fire
But I always got cold feet
Love never really did anything for me
Try telling that to this goddamn city
And if the storm should stop
I´d ask you to dance on some cliche mountain top
We´d share straws at your favorite coffee shop
But life it ain´t no romance novel

I met a man
Who sold umbrellas
and
just five dollars
saved me from all that rain

For now I am alone
I think I like being alone
