Cold Chisel - The Toast Of Paris lyrics

We both know you’ll be leaving soon, flying for a day Following a heart already gone I can hear your conversation turning inward and away We both know when it happens you’ll be flying out alone I’ll watch you disappear like a stone into the blue Take the loss and never let it show You think your destination is waiting just for you But you don’t know yet how much further you’ll need to go It takes more than a sulky mouth To be the toast of Paris No matter what they told ya No matter what they told ya It takes more than a sulky mouth To be the toast of Paris I know that won’t hold you here I know that won’t hold you I love you for the way you still believe that you’re invincible The way tomorrow has to happen now I love the way you’re driven by a heart so incorruptible But there’ll be ways to break it, and people who know how I have seen the girls of Paris like gazelles on meth-amphetamines Cashing in their only ticket home Strung on the catwalk, loaded into limousines To fill the kind of parties where you never see the dawn It takes more than a sulky mouth To be the toast of Paris... We both know you’ll flying out alone Riding on a ticket no return I love you and I’ll pray for you out here on the edge I’ll burn A candle every day until the day you get to learn It takes more than a sulky mouth To be the toast of Paris...
