Lyrics One Night In Sacramento - Paris Street

One night in Sacramento as I looked into her eyes
I come as close to praying as I had in a long time
I thought, 'hey, whoever's up there, I know you know I never ask
For too much, but this one time, could you please make this one last?'

And we kissed a million times, and we lost track of the night
And I knew I'd never tire of looking into her eyes

One day in Barcelona, I couldn't have been happier
Strutting through La Rambla, I finally was over her
I was caught up in my holiday and in my long-missed cheer
To further dwell on the sadness that choked the prior year

Where we had a million fights, and the days crawled into nights
And I lost the rush of love I felt when I would look into her eyes

One weekend at the lake that rush of love seemed to return
We reconciled and pledged that from our mistakes we would learn
And we focused on our future, and we set aside the past
And I thought about my pseudo-prayer – maybe this could still last

And we kissed a million times, and it once again felt right
And nothing brought me more joy than looking into her eyes
But it was just a flicker, the last glow of a dying light
We'd be back to pain and heartbreak after barely a fortnight

Tonight in Sacramento I get into bed alone
Scrolling through some nonsense as I stare into my phone
