Rue de Charonne

[Verse 1]
Shoulder to shoulder by the door
Your coat brushes mine once more
Mismatched shoes on the floor
We sway with the turn

One stop, then two, then more
A scarf caught tight in the crush
Your hand on the pole, my hand in the hush
And nobody looks up

[Pre-Chorus]
The train leans left
Then leans right
Hold your breath
Hold it tight

[Chorus]
Crowded Paris Metro trains
Crowded Paris Metro trains
I find you in the sway
I find you in the sway

Crowded Paris Metro trains
Crowded Paris Metro trains
The whole world moves away
The whole world moves away

[Verse 2]
A baker's box on a lap
A wet umbrella in black
A map folded into a crack
By the torn-up seat

A laugh jumps over the track
A kid taps out a rhythm in air
Your eyes meet mine like a dare
Then the doors go wide

[Pre-Chorus]
The train leans left
Then leans right
Hold your breath
Hold it tight

[Chorus]
Crowded Paris Metro trains
Crowded Paris Metro trains
I find you in the sway
I find you in the sway

Crowded Paris Metro trains
Crowded Paris Metro trains
The whole world moves away
The whole world moves away

[Bridge]
At Bastille, the crowd breaks apart
For one clean second, I know your heart
Then the gap fills fast
And the moment won't last

[Final Chorus]
Crowded Paris Metro trains
Crowded Paris Metro trains
I find you in the sway
I find you in the sway

Crowded Paris Metro trains
Crowded Paris Metro trains
The whole world moves away
The whole world moves away
