Paris
The Chainsmokers [FazMusic.Net] Lyrics

We were staying in Paris
We chose to go to the city of love, Paris

To get away from your parents
Because of issues with your parents, we decided to leave and go to Paris

And I thought, "Wow
But I had a moment of realization

If I could take this in a shot right now
If I could capture this moment

I don't think that we could work this out”
Our relationship may not be able to survive

Out on the terrace
While standing outside where the air is fresh and view is gorgeous

I don't know if it's fair but I thought "How
I'm not sure if it was right of me but I couldn't help but think

Could I let you fall by yourself
If things failed, I didn't want to see you going through it alone

While I'm wasted with someone else”
As I'm making mistakes with someone else

If we go down then we go down together
If things go wrong, we'll face it together

They'll say you could do anything
Others will believe you have the power to do anything

They'll say that I was clever
And that they thought I was smart for being with you

We'll get away with everything
In the end, we'll get away with it all (our indiscretions, perhaps)

Let's show them we are better
Let's prove everyone else wrong by succeeding together and gaining happiness

You look so proud
You seem happy and self-assured

Standing there with a frown and a cigarette
But your expression and cigarette show that you're not as confident as you pretend to be

Posting pictures of yourself on the internet
Only further perpetuates the facade

We breathe in the air of this small town
We take in the atmosphere of this Parisian town

On our own cuttin' class for the thrill of it
We decided to cut school and do something daring and fun

Getting drunk on the past we were livin' in
We drink and reminisce on our past experiences

Let's show them we are
Let's demonstrate our love and commitment to proving ourselves

Show them we are
Reinforcing the importance of making our mark and showing the world what we're made of

If we go down
If we fail

We were staying in Paris
This is where we were at the time of the failure

Let's show them we are better
Even if we fall, let's showcase how much we've grown and how much stronger we've become because of it
