Lyrics

Red shirt, long face Tall stairs, crowded place A halfway finished conversation from the night before Taking cover from the rain, it's pouring at the Sacrรฉ-Cล“ur When you lose someone you love, does it make music in the end? Oh, I'm romanticizing poets again Warm breeze, tie up your hair Late light, cobbled square Rolling cigarettes like locals, playing rummy at the bars I think the best way you can help someone is just being where they are With your head upon my shoulder, looking out onto the Seine Oh, I'm romanticizing poets again Oh, what a beautiful sight to see Willow trees on the riverbank Think about how it used to be Oh, did they die of a broken heart? Was it all for the sake of art? What does that mean for me? White pick, Saturn return Too bright, how they burn Tragedy to fiction to a trite mythology An inconvenient contradiction, I need apology So darling, please forgive me if I forget that now and then Oh, I'm romanticizing poets again Oh, I'm romanticizing poets again
