Parisian Skies Lyrics - Maximo Park

Parisian skies 

Shadows beneath your eyes 

All we have is now 

And the arc of your brow 

You came to leave these shores 

You had an inkling in your pores 

We came to bid farewell 

The tears began to swell 

Oh 

I don't think she knew 

And I can't forget her 

The dark with holes 

Our lives unfold 

We always slept so well 

Our bodies seemed to gel 

The mind persists 

We have thoughts to exist 

It was a test I failed 

Her passion never tailed 

Oh 

I don't think she knew 

How much I loved her 

Oh 

I don't think she knew 

Is this the thrill of the chase 

How can I keep up the pace 

Parisian skies 

Shadows beneath your eyes 

We always slept so well 

The present cast a spell 

You said we never talked 

But there's a lightness that it brought 

Refracting all my sins 

We never (acted thin) 

Oh 

I don't think she knew 

How much I loved her 

Oh 

I don't think she knew 

Your loss is mine too 

Did you ever feel the thrill of the chase 

The breath on your neck 

And the locked embrace 

Did you ever feel the thrill of the chase 

The hairs on your neck 

And a lost embrace 

All of the tiny events in your back 

It reminds me of the way that porcelain cracks
