[Verse 1 – Male vocals - Daniel] I came to Paris to forget But I walked through ghosts and cigarettes Lit up streets and carousel songs Still felt like you were tagging along [Verse 2 – Female vocals - Nora] I booked this trip to feel brand new But every stone just whispered “you” And under arches carved in gold I saw the story we never toldnd there you were, in Paris light) (And there you were, in Paris light) (Ten years gone, but the feeling’s right) (You smiled like I still knew your name) (And the world spun, but we stayed the same) (At midnight, we found what time erased) (Paris, New Year’s Eve...) (And your face) [Verse 3 – Male vocals - Daniel] You laughed like bells down cobblestone Said, “How the hell are we still alone?” I said, “I think we just took the long way” And you said, “Well... I'm here to stay” [Verse 4 – Female vocals - Nora] We missed the count, we missed the toast But found the one thing we needed most You touched my cheek like nothing changed And all my years rearranged [Pre-Chorus – Male and Female - Daniel and Nora together] (This time, we didn’t blink or flinch (This time, we didn’t second guess [Final Chorus – Male and Female, Daniel and Nora together, soaring] (And there we were, in Paris light) (Holding on as the stars ignited) (You kissed me like the world was still) (And everything else went quiet, until...) (We laughed, we cried, we said “I know”) (No more leaving, no letting go) (Paris, New Year’s Eve... and finally home) [Outro – male and female, Daniel and Nora together, softly] This time is ours This time, for real You’re my always You’re my still [Final line – whispered] Ten years... and then.
