Lyrics

[Intro] Visiting La Ruche in Montparnasse Finally meeting all the masters At the wrong time [Verse] Heaven can wait This coffee is only hot For 20 minutes If life is worth living It’s in these little things Heaven forbid This body expires Before its purpose If life is without meaning It’s in these little anguishes [Pre-Chorus] So what’s the rush? If it’s yours, it’s yours Everything is basically Predetermined for us [Chorus] All that we have is now All that is real is here Everything that you ever wanted You had Everything that we ever dreamed of We get And everything important We take for granted [Verse] Heaven can wait This story’s only got Twenty more pages If life is worth living It’s in these final passages Heaven forbid These evils haven’t yet expired Whatever their purpose If life is without meaning It’s in these little demons [Pre-Chorus] So what’s the rush? If it’s yours, it’s yours Everything is basically Predetermined for us [Chorus] All that we have is now All that is real is here Everything that you ever wanted You had Everything that we ever dreamed of We get And everything important We take for granted [Bridge] Slowing down along the Seine Strolling through the Jardin du Luxembourg Sitting at a sidewalk café With a little book Walking up to Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre Visiting La Ruche in Montparnasse Finally meeting all the masters At the wrong time [Violin Solo] [Pre-Chorus] So what’s the rush? If it’s yours, it’s yours Everything is basically Predetermined for us [Chorus] All that we have is now All that is real is here Everything that you ever wanted You had Everything that we ever dreamed of We get And everything important We take for granted [Outro] Everything that you ever wanted You had Everything that we ever dreamed of We get And everything important We take for granted
