Paris im Herbst [English translation]

Have you ever seen the Eiffel Tower from below?

I stood under it and it was beautiful

It was only five degress, the sky blue like the sea

You asked me, how much I liked to live and I said very much

I know what you look like, while you were asleep

And if you were a city, you would be Paris

Somewhere else isn't bad too, I said in March

I've seen the most beautiful thing in the world:

Paris in the fall

My French is limited to the following sentence:

"Mes cles ... ah, toujour la!"

Granted, you don't get very far with that

but Paris was willing to speak English

We watched suburban breakdancers on Sacré-Coer

Cities from above, I still love that so much

The sun descends like a Bordeaux from '04

"C'mon you Nazi bastard, bring me, bring me a beer"

Said your cousin in the evening on a party in jest

And then we talked about the war

in Paris in the fall

I know what you look like, while you were asleep

And if you were a city, you would be Paris

Somewhere else isn't bad too, I said in March

I've seen the most beautiful thing in the world:

Paris in the fall

Paris in the fall

La la la la

La la la la
