lyrics

I’m moving to Paris, France, and there’s nothing you can do
To keep me living here, it’s time for something new.
I’m moving to Paris, France, and there’s nothing you can do.
Cela est que j’ai dit. Que dites-vous?

And I loved you, goodbye, goodbye.

I’m moving to New York City, and there’s nothing you can do
To keep my dream from coming true
I’m moving to New York City, and there’s nothing you can do
Cause the big city’s for me, and this small town is for you.

And I loved you, goodbye, goodbye.

I’m gonna skip this town, and there’s nothing you can do
To keep me in this house living with you.
I’m gonna skip this town, and I mean it, too.
Cause there’s nothing left for me in this house or with you.

And I loved you, goodbye, goodbye.

I’m gonna move crosstown, and I don’t wanna see you
Catching a crosstown bus just to see what’s new.
I’m gonna move crosstown, that’s what I’m gonna do
And I’ll be too busy there to mess around with you.

And I loved you, goodbye, goodbye.

I can’t believe you’re moving in with him so soon.
Won’t you stay here, babe? There’s plenty of room.
I can’t believe you’re moving in with him so soon.
Won’t you stay here, babe? There’s plenty of room.

And I…
And I…
And I…
And I…
