When I lived in the city of Dublin
It suited my face and my tears
The talk, the drink and the friends were good
And stood for my hopes and my fears
I lived in a flat in Ballsbridge
And at two in the morning I'd hear
The sound as the horses came back from their work
And the horses clip-clop coming near
Horses and high heels
Horses and high heels
What every city knows and feels
ย
Late at night in Paris
In my apartment that's up from the street
I hear a girl in high heels almost running
To meet her lover extremely discreet
Horses and high heels
Horses and high heels
What every city knows and feels
Horses and high heels
Horses and high heels
What every city knows and feels
In Dublin and Paris women are running
Ghostly horses return from the park
Off to meet a man of their dreams
And a stable so warm and dark
Horses and high heels
Horses and high heels
What every city knows and feels
Horses and high heels
What every city knows and feels
Horses and high heels
