From the recording The Outsider
Lyrics
Birds and animals flee, but humans rarely foresee
Hurricanes that come on a quiet sea
I didn’t see you coming, you took me by surprise
Starting a story that has yet to be finalized
Our planets were not aligned
It wasn’t our time
No regrets, no sorrows
Only forgotten heroes
The ones that can stop time
But darling as long as the sun still shines
We’ll always have Paris
Drinking and talking all night long, helped making crazy plans
Two kids, a tiny house and some succulent plants
Both perfectly knowing that we wouldn’t make it through
But as you know some dreams aren’t made to come true
Our planets were not aligned
It wasn’t our time
No regrets, no sorrows
Only forgotten heroes
The ones that can stop time
But darling as long as the sun still shines
We’ll always have Paris
Sky is the limit you used to say
Even with footprints on a quiet sea
But these days, romance can’t kill reality
Long gone are the times of poetry
Walking hand in hand along the Seine River
Looking at the moon reflecting in the water
I could feel so much hope then in your black eyes
To these moments baby, I raise my glass
You must be married now, I’m sure you’re doing fine
Surrounded by strangers’ laughter at Christmas time
There’s no more left to say, just make sure you make your way
Through these dark and troubled times, we’ll meet again in another life
Our planets were not aligned
It wasn’t our time
No regrets, no sorrows
Only forgotten heroes
The ones that can stop time
But darling as long as the sun still shines
We’ll always have Paris...
