Alleine In Paris Lyrics in English Tim Bendzko

Home / Lyrics Translation / Tim Bendzko / Alleine In Paris

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Alleine In Paris by Tim Bendzko from German to English.

I've postponed the vacation three times

Because your work can never wait

And you didn't lie

You run away from everything, eventually

Booked Disneyland, picked out restaurants

And now suddenly you've fallen out of love

Now I'm sitting here all of a sudden

Alone in Paris

I will never forgive you for this

All of a sudden it's too much for you

I'm about to fall on my knees before you

Now I'm standing here alone

Alone in Paris

Like from a super bad movie

But unfortunately, the ring isn't from a gumball machine

Now I'm sitting here, with a full drink

Staring at the kissing couples at the Eiffel Tower

Three days before the flight, everything was still fine between us

Now you've suddenly fallen out of love

Now I'm sitting here all of a sudden

Alone in Paris

I will never forgive you for this

All of a sudden it's too much for you

I'm about to fall on my knees before you

Now I'm standing here alone

Alone in Paris

You seem to love the back and forth

To enjoy your new life

My love was just borrowed

Please just stay in Berlin

From now on, I'll fly alone

Lie in double beds alone

I would say

Alone in Paris

SONG MEANING

Picture it: suitcases packed, hotel booked, and a proposal-ready ring tucked away for a fairy-tale getaway in Paris. Instead of strolling hand in hand beneath the Eiffel Tower, the singer of Alleine in Paris finds himself sipping a lonely cocktail while watching other couples kiss. His partner, always “too busy” for the trip, bails at the last second and admits she has simply fallen out of love. All the planning, postponed vacations, and Disneyland dreams crash in an instant, leaving him stranded in the City of Love with nothing but heartbreak for company.

The song turns this cinematic setback into a bittersweet anthem about sudden break-ups and self-respect. Bendzko captures the shock of going from we to me overnight, the sting of realizing your devotion was only ever borrowed, and the resolve to move forward: “Ich werd' ab jetzt alleine fliegen.” It is a relatable reminder that even the most romantic backdrop cannot fix a relationship that has already checked out—and sometimes the best souvenir you bring home is the lesson that you deserve someone who actually shows up.
