Had a map on the wall

Of all the places we want to go

When the roof starts to leak

We’re in Paris in the spring

Getting drunk in Tel aviv

Maybe take a train to Nice

Maybe we’re just talking in our sleep

But you’ve got a job

A car you’re paying off

Oh how they fly, those years

We couldn’t find it here

And our horizons keep getting farther away

The earth spins every day

I see the future slip away from me

Our plans are falling down like leaves

All these lives that we forgot to lead

When the cracks start to show

You add another place we’ll escape to

Slip away to Santa Fe

Spend the fall in Montreal

Never mention it again

Once a pin goes in the wall and

It seems you’re talking in your sleep

Oh how they fly, those years

We couldn’t find it here

And our horizons keep getting farther away

The earth spins every day

I see the future slip away from me

Our plans are falling down like leaves

All these lives that we forgot to lead

But you got a job,

A car you’re paying off

And don’t I feel like such a silly little thing

Because I believed, because I believed

In Paris in the Spring

Oh how they fly, those years

We couldn’t find it here

And our horizons keep getting farther away

The earth spinning every day

I see the future slip away from me

Our plans are falling down like leaves

All these lives that we forgot to lead
