I've somehow gotten lost
Got no clue where I'm headed
Standing with my little suitcase
Here on the Champs-Élysées
"Salut, qu'est-ce que vous cherchez?"
I say, "Par-don, I'm sorry
I just can't understand you."
And draw two cups of coffee
Somehow sounds kinda nice
And time just freezes
I wish I could understand you
la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
The little scar on your face
Even the dust on your jeans
Has flair whenever you speak
The cigarette tastes like liberté
As long as we share it
You speak in body language
And I listen between your lines
I don't wanna leave anymore
Somehow sounds kinda nice
And time just freezes
I wish I could understand you
la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
The sun drops behind the houses
That the moment stays a bit longer
Around us, a thousand people
But the language we're speaking
Everything you keep saying
Somehow sounds kinda nice
And time just freezes
I wish I could understand you
la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
