Masked Man

Verse 1

Cobblestones wet with midnight rain

He moves like a shadow through the Pont Neuf

Leather creaking in the silence

I follow the trail he leaves behind

Pre-Chorus

Je ne sais pas his name or his face

But every step pulls me into his pace

Chorus

Masked man in the Paris dark

Black leather and a hidden heart

I chase the ghost beneath the arc

Ooh la la, you tear me apart

Verse 2

Café tables stacked and empty

He disappears into the Metro breath

A gloved hand waves from the turning

I swear I caught a glimpse of death

Pre-Chorus

Je ne sais pas why I'm not afraid

Something in the way the game is played

Chorus

Masked man in the Paris dark

Black leather and a hidden heart

I chase the ghost beneath the arc

Ooh la la, you tear me apart

Bridge

Je t'attends under the streetlamp glow

A cigarette burning down slow

Maybe tonight he lifts the veil

Maybe I'm already gone, déjà

Drop

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

You tear me apart

Chorus

Masked man in the Paris dark

Black leather and a hidden heart

I chase the ghost beneath the arc

Ooh la la, you tear me apart
