paroles de chanson Apologies to Sigrun - Paris Street

On a bench outside a bar whose name I couldn't pronounce
Almost four in the morning but it was already light out
With a girl by my side, it was a positive sign
But the tears in her eyes were telling me otherwise

I was cruising through this silly game surprisingly well
On the cusp of having one hell of a story to tell
Now the story's still good but it's changed horribly
Foiled by the advance of U.S. breath mint technology

Apologies to Sigrun

I've never said 'I'm sorry' (and meant it) so many times
Conquest was sadly now the furthest thing on my mind
But she seemed to understand that it was just an honest mistake
She forced a smile and, in broken English, said that she was okay

Apologies to Sigrun

I never thought I'd be
On this island in the northeast corner of the sea
Cursing Listerine
I should be just like every other tourist in a drunken revelry
Instead of stressing out over an overpowering burst of wintergreen

My heart sank when she said that she wanted to go
But she said my hostel was in the same neighborhood as her home
So we shared a cab and - at her house - instead of saying goodbye
She invited me in, it was a positive sign

Apologies to Sigrun
