Lyrics

Breakfast at Mickey's, make up still on
Elbows on the greasy table cloth
One more coffee and one last cigarette
Smiling at the rain 'cause you hold me close
My best dress on underneath this old coat
Walking down Bleecker, no one is awake yet
I know in seven hours, nothing but clouds
Oh it's enough to make your heart sigh
Though we should try
Pick me up and take me out
Ooh, ooh, we crash into love filled nights
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Ooh, ooh, we race till we're out of time
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Ooh yeah
Ooh, ooh, you've taken me up so high
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
Don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
I could see the lights from the restaurant
I couldn't quite perfect that nonchalance
Paris and champagne with one brown sugar cube
And we danced while the band played, 'She's not there'
Kissed me in the rain by the Rue Voltaire
It's a perfectly good way to ruin those silk shoes
Still seven hours, nothing but clouds
Oh it's enough to make your heart sigh
We should try
For each other, for the lovers
Ooh, ooh, we crash into love filled nights
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Ooh, ooh, we race till we're out of time
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Ooh yeah
Ooh, ooh, you've taken me up so high
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
Don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
Oh, oh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, you change and you grow
We were young
But we were young and we didn't know
We didn't know, oh, oh
Ooh, ooh, we crash into love filled nights
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Ooh, ooh, we race till we're out of time
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Ooh no
Ooh, ooh, you've taken me up so high
(Paris nights and New York mornings)
Don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
Don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(Don't let me down)
(Don't let me down)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(Don't let me down)
(Don't let me down)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(Don't let me down)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
