Your ex-friend's sister met someone at a club and he kissed her

Turns out it was that guy you hooked up with ages ago, some wannabe z-lister

And all the outfits were terrible

2003 unbearable

Did you see the photos?

No, I didn't but thanks though.

I'm so in love that I might stop breathing

Drew a map on your bedroom ceiling

No, I didn't see the news

'cause we were somewhere else

Stumble down pretend alleyways

Cheap wine, make believe it's champagne

I was taken by the view

Like we were in paris

Like we were somewhere else

Like we were in paris, oh...

We were somewhere else.

Privacy sign on the door

And on my page and on the whole world

Romance is not dead

If you keep it just yours

Levitate above all the messes made

Sit quiet by my side in the shade

And not the kind that's thrown

I mean the kind under where a tree has grown.

I'm so in love that I might stop breathing

Drew a map on your bedroom ceiling

No, I didn't see the news

'cause we were somewhere else

Stumble down pretend alleyways

Cheap wine, make believe it's champagne

I was taken by the view

Like we were in paris

Like we were somewhere else

Like we were in paris, oh...

We were somewhere else.

I want to brainwash you into loving me forever

I want to transport you to somewhere the culture's clever

Confess my truth in swooping, sloping, cursive letters

Let the only flashing lights

Be the tower at midnight

In my mind.

We drew a map on your bedroom ceiling

No, I didn't see the news

'cause we were somewhere else

In an alleyway

Drinking champagne

'cause we were in paris

Yes, we were somewhere else

My love, we were in paris

Yes, we were somewhere else.
