Remember that electric feeling of being in love on a city break? Paris paints that memory in neon lights, then contrasts it with the dull wallpaper of a romance that has gone routine. The lyrics describe a couple sitting in a room where paint chips, tires screech in the distance, and even the moths look exhausted. Yet, rather than giving in to the gray, they cling to a single glowing thought: “We still have Paris.” The French capital becomes their code word for freedom, adventure, and the first rush of butterflies—proof that the spark can be reignited if they dare to step outside their tired patterns.
So the song is a rallying cry. It shouts, “Grab your jacket, kiss me, and let’s start over—right now!” The lovers decide to begin with an ending, to tear down the old wallpaper of their habits and repaint life with the colors of their favorite memory. Paris is both a place and a promise: no matter how worn-out things feel, there is always a chance to fly higher, love harder, and make something beautiful again.
