Dalam lagu "Paris," Faith Hill melukiskan gambaran Paris yang jauh dari kesan romantisnya yang biasa. Dia menggambarkan kota itu sebagai tempat yang kacau dengan penduduknya yang mabuk dan sombong. Kegembiraan dan sukacita yang dikaitkan dengan Paris tampaknya tidak terasa, alih-alih digantikan oleh kesombongan dan kemalangan. Meskipun Hill mengungkapkan kesediaannya untuk memberikan segalanya untuk kekasihnya, termasuk landmark terkenal seperti Mona Lisa dan Menara Eiffel, dia mengakui ketidakmampuannya untuk memberikan kota Paris itu sendiri.
Paris Lyrics
Faith Hill
The train pulled into paris like a rocket to the moon
The station's like a circus every face is a cartoon
Everybody's stoned on pride and drunk on cheap champagne
Tonight this joie de vivre sure don't live up to its name
And now all that i can say
[Chorus:]
Is i'd give this world to you
Every rock and every stone every masterpiece in rome
And if you asked me to
I'd steel the mona lisa, tear it up in little pieces
And lay them at your feet
For all the world to see
But tonight i can't give you paris
Aristocrats are everywhere
And the air's as thick as thieves
She'd like nothing better than to steal the breathe from me
The tower's lights ain't shinin' as it hangs its head in shame
At the sight of american blood on the streets of st. germain
Washin' up into the seine
[repeat chorus]
And i'd give this world to you
I'd steal the crown and kingdom from the queen of england
And if you asked me to
I'd take this city in my hands, break it down in grains of sand
And lay them at your feet
For all the world to see
But tonight i can't give you paris
The station's like a circus every face is a cartoon
Everybody's stoned on pride and drunk on cheap champagne
Tonight this joie de vivre sure don't live up to its name
And now all that i can say
[Chorus:]
Is i'd give this world to you
Every rock and every stone every masterpiece in rome
And if you asked me to
I'd steel the mona lisa, tear it up in little pieces
And lay them at your feet
For all the world to see
But tonight i can't give you paris
Aristocrats are everywhere
And the air's as thick as thieves
She'd like nothing better than to steal the breathe from me
The tower's lights ain't shinin' as it hangs its head in shame
At the sight of american blood on the streets of st. germain
Washin' up into the seine
[repeat chorus]
And i'd give this world to you
I'd steal the crown and kingdom from the queen of england
And if you asked me to
I'd take this city in my hands, break it down in grains of sand
And lay them at your feet
For all the world to see
But tonight i can't give you paris
