Shyness invaded On the Champs-Élysées The world was ours then I had conviction But you, you had style Such a lethal combination The years changed us The money weighed us down We lost our way Let me spoil you Pick a place to go I want to spend my money on you And don't you remember How this began? You begged me for a chance Don't waste your sorry No, don't waste your goodbyes Tonight From hand to mouth and now We're living lux I ordered a lobster And you, them away The waitress thinks that we can't pay, no What does she know? Our pockets are full grown And we've earned the right to fine dine So raise your glass My old friend For we both know That this is the end For the times we fought And the times we shared I'll sing you a song The way I used to then Don't you remember How this began? You begged me for a chance Don't waste your sorry No, don't waste your goodbyes Tonight From hand to mouth and now We're living lux We're living lux
