[Verse 1]
Meet me at the Bureau de change
I’m not ready to die
At least not in a country this ugly
Men like us need a grand finale
I saw a picture online of a beautiful market square
It reminds me of a lyric I didn’t write
You were always the ideas man
[Chorus]
I wish I’d done everything on earth with you
There’s a city in Europe where no one will remember our names
Where all the motorways cascade
Pavements flow like waves
There’s a city in Europe in which nobody comes home
Tonight we’re driving on the right into the great unknown
[Verse 2]
As we sit and discuss
The lack of romance in the smoke and mirrors of an electronic cigarette
I realise our dreams are almost as old as us
[Chorus]
I wish I’d done everything on earth with, everything on earth with you, with you too
There’s a city in Europe where no one will remember our names
Where all the motorways cascade
Pavements flow like waves
There’s a city in Europe in which nobody comes home
Tonight we’re driving on the right into the great unknown
[Bridge]
Marseille, Dresden, Vienna, Birmingham, Sofia, Monaco, Amsterdam, Oslo, Athens, Barcelona, Glasgow, Verona, Budapest, Gothenburg, Sheffield, Hamburg
[Verse 3]
We don’t need context to set the scene
We were born here, we will die here
Let’s try living in between
[Chorus x2]
There’s a city in Europe where no one will remember our names
Where all the motorways cascade
Pavements flow like waves
There’s a city in Europe in which nobody comes home
Tonight we’re driving on the right into the great unknown
