lyrics
my window's a sieve
this city seeps in
a heat and a friction
we can't help but breathe in
the door is wide open
we're both feeling trapped
both of us hoping
there must be some kind of way back
je te retrouve à montréal
laisses tes soucis à brooklyn, ils sont pas réels*
i know you well
and you know me
but this city treats us like strangers
dangerous like bankers
all of that changes
when we go back to montréal
goldie and i
at the outpost café
brooklyn's so heavy
this time of day
she tells me you're trouble
i should run far and run fast
but she don't know, everything will be alright
if we can only get back
je te retrouve à montréal
laisses tes soucis à brooklyn, ils sont pas réels
i know you well
and you know me
but this city treats us like strangers
dangerous like bankers
all of that changes
when we go back to montréal
i stand up to leave
you pull me back down
you cry as you kiss me
you cry as you kiss me
but something is missing
we left it in montréal
and there ain't no going back
there for us now
je te retrouve à montréal
laisses tes soucis à brooklyn, ils sont pas réels
i know you well
and you know me
but this city treats us like strangers
dangerous like bankers
desperate like angels
all of that changes
when we go back to montréal
this city seeps in
a heat and a friction
we can't help but breathe in
the door is wide open
we're both feeling trapped
both of us hoping
there must be some kind of way back
je te retrouve à montréal
laisses tes soucis à brooklyn, ils sont pas réels*
i know you well
and you know me
but this city treats us like strangers
dangerous like bankers
all of that changes
when we go back to montréal
goldie and i
at the outpost café
brooklyn's so heavy
this time of day
she tells me you're trouble
i should run far and run fast
but she don't know, everything will be alright
if we can only get back
je te retrouve à montréal
laisses tes soucis à brooklyn, ils sont pas réels
i know you well
and you know me
but this city treats us like strangers
dangerous like bankers
all of that changes
when we go back to montréal
i stand up to leave
you pull me back down
you cry as you kiss me
you cry as you kiss me
but something is missing
we left it in montréal
and there ain't no going back
there for us now
je te retrouve à montréal
laisses tes soucis à brooklyn, ils sont pas réels
i know you well
and you know me
but this city treats us like strangers
dangerous like bankers
desperate like angels
all of that changes
when we go back to montréal
