The Wonder Years – The Paris of Nowhere

The Wonder Years – The Paris of Nowhere Lyrics

Artist: The Wonder Years
Song: The Paris of Nowhere

We’re building shrines to Saint Nick Foles
In the windows, in the living rooms
I’m playing dancing with a ghost
In the soft light of the afternoon

I’m alone in the house where your sister died
We’re building shrines to Saint Nick Foles
In the churches, in the alleyways
I watched the river overflow

From the Schuylkill in the pouring rain
I’m alone in the house where your sister died
On the block that you loved your entire life
And I takе same train I did at 19

And we danced on thе benches in the empty market east
Throw me into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast

The Paris of nowhere
Into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
A desperate kind of cutthroat

The Paris of nowhere
(The Paris of nowhere)
We’re planting gardens in the potholes
No one comes to fill them in

I’ll love you when nobody else will
Shoulder chips and paper skin
You’re a kid swinging off of a traffic light
You’re a block party outside a junkyard fire

Throw me into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast
The Paris of nowhere

Into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
A desperate kind of cutthroat
The Paris of nowhere

Two feet of snow on the ground
And it’s still coming down
So I’m gonna dig you out
I’m gonna dig you out

It must get lonely without Coleen and Sheryl around
I’m gonna dig you out
I’m gonna dig you out
Still got the flowers we found taped to the door of our house

I’m gonna dig you out
I’m gonna dig you out
You were always looking out
Throw me into the Delaware

And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast
The Paris of nowhere
Into the Delaware

And leave me down at the bottom there
A desperate kind of cutthroat
The Paris of nowhere
The Paris of nowhere

The Paris of nowhere
