I had to go and throw myself into emotion

Floating arms are open

Losing all the things I know

Paris ain't no place to be alone

When you're down and on your own

Oh, no-no

So damn hard when love is all around

And myself is all I found to hold the heat

But I'm gonna keep

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

Each night I find my light in the mirror

Stars shine in my eyes

Future's getting clearer and clearer

'Cause Paris ain't no place to be alone

When you're down and on your own

Oh, no-no

So damn hard when love is all around

And myself is all I found to hold the heat

But I'm gonna keep

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

'Cause Paris ain't no place to be alone

When you're down and on your own

Oh, no-no

So damn hard when love is all around

And myself is all I found to hold the heat

But I'm gonna keep

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep

Keep doing me

Keep doing me
