When I was 5, I married you twice
Once in English, the other in subtitles
Close captioned for the hearing impaired
Childhood love.

Let me level up, I have enough experience
Enough dramatic speech and music
It’s been a while, I’ll visit your clearwater sea
And we’ll be where it was in ‘90

The one-liners, the swing-sets, the tangled hair
As savvy as Fred Astaire
Backbeat the weather is on the street
I ran out of words, so I stole
That’s what it comes down to, me and you.

The teetering taunts, the bicycle stunts
Always catch the boy
And when I left I brought with me the conscience of all that
You might have nice hair, well I like mine all right

I’ll cue the reunion music, let the band play
I’ll put it in slow motion
Then:
Don’t lose track of time, this here stopwatch will help you along the way
And when I get there the crowds will whistle and shout for an execution
And cabbage will be thrown…all the way? for freedom.

And my love’s dripping out
I’ll see you in the audience
Your name is on every bathroom wall in French, in France.
Your name is on every bathroom wall in French, in France.

So hereafter, Natalie, c’est amour, c’est la vie.
And the way the pupils glowed along the Eiffel skyline brings me back to St. Germain.
And the way the pupils glowed along the Eiffel skyline brings me back to you.
