From Baltimore to Paris

You soon became his favorite toy
When he could not turn the tide

You gave up your pride
Would you do it all again?
Outside looking in
A brighter jewel than any in the crown
Rumor red

From Baltimore to Paris

If you had your time over
With a lifetime to prove yourselves
Of a long way home
He abandoned what he promised you

Across the years
Just good friends
Held back the tears
He was your lonely little boy
Rumor red
You held your head up high
A prisoner of circumstances
It was enough for you to be at his side
Lost in deep water and about to go down
You were not meant to be
You were ahead of your time
