We once could please each other
But we have lost ourselves
You're only a few kilometers away
and our hearts, our hearts stayed in the sea
I ran along the Seine
Trying to find your serene soul again
I ran without knowing how
or why we get ahead of ourselves
We only knew each other for a moment in time
And I don't know if you're worth it anymore
It's kind of hard to be certain
And when you go to Vincennes tonight
don't forget me
I expect you to at least give me time to say
How I had wanted to take a risk
That night that made me so very sad
That night at Place de la République
And as you see, it's truly the end
I must cross the ocean tomorrow morning
From your arms, I unwrap myself gently
And it's reality that waits for me
I know your heart is stolen
By one girl or another, that have affected you
I'm not usually as memorable
But I hope that you miss me so much
I hope that I stand out the most
And I don't know if you're worth it anymore
It's kind of hard to be certain
And when you go to Vincennes tonight
don't forget me
I expect you to at least give me time to say
How I had wanted to take a risk
That night that made me so very sad
That night at Place de la République
