[Verse 1]
We’ll never meet again in the same place
At the same time, on the other side of the world
We won’t end up in bed together again by mistake
I’ll never steal our first kiss again
I’ll never see your smile again
The one that arranged every line of your face like a perfect frame
You lasted a moment I made eternal
From that moment flows a lifetime of choices we’ll never make
We’ll meet again beneath a train, still screaming
While the plane goes down inside a tornado
Brushing past each other, surrendered to the wind
Floating in space, one meter from a black hole
The daughter we’ll never have—I hope she has your eyes
The house we won’t buy is still filled with memories
Trips we won’t take, fights, emotions
The goodbyes we won’t say make us feel less alone

[Chorus]
You are a dream of freedom
But you already went back to Paris
You already went back to Paris
You’re better than reality
But you already went back to Paris
You already went back to Paris

[Verse 2]
And it’s not true that God rested on Sunday
He made you in secret—you’re his finest gift
So human, the summary of everything
Light as the suicide of a rose petal
I chose to imagine you instead of living you
I chose to sketch you on fragile sheets
Tracing you over and over till they’re torn apart
Until we can’t tell pencils from knives
If I were tiny, I’d jump into your hands
All you’d need is to close them to erase me
Love only arrives when you try to step aside
I wonder if describing you is enough to cast you out
You vanished on Fifth Avenue in the steam of the streets
While I yelled in Italian, “What are you doing to me?”
Maybe we only dreamed each other
And neither of us ever existed

[Chorus]
You are a dream of freedom
But you already went back to Paris
You already went back to Paris
You’re better than reality
But you already went back to Paris
You already went back to Paris

[Outro]
You are a dream of freedom
But you already went back to Paris
You already went back to Paris
You’re better than reality
But you already went back to Paris
You already went back to Paris
