Lyrics

The room was spinning like a pirouette Before I blacked out like a silhouette The details are blurry, but I remember it I dreamt I was Miles and you were Juliet Our bodies wound up like an old cassette Our hearts pounding like two castanets It was Paris, 1949 It was love in a better time Before photoshopped lips and collagen smiles When longing meant more than a drunk dial That's why I'm always coming back to you You fell silent like a dying star Then grew distant like a cosmonaut Your eyes glossed over like an autumn frost Your love as absent as our parents' god We stood waiting like a funeral plot But we both knew that you were too far gone I miss Paris, 1949 It was love in a better time Before photoshopped lips and collagen smiles When longing meant more than a drunk dial I miss Paris, 1949 It was love in a better time Before photoshopped lips and collagen smiles I miss Paris, 1949 It was love in a better time Before photoshopped lips and collagen smiles When longing meant more than a drunk dial That's why I'll always come back to you
