Les lumières de la Ville de Montréal Thousands of people driving around in circles Where do I fit? If I disappear, will the world forget? There's only one love in my heart In my mind's stage she is the star When will you sing me your song of how the whole world gets along? Oh my love I'd do it all for you I'd be your everything if you want me to I'd cook you food and write you songs and kiss you But only if you want me to Only if you want me to I hope you really want me too

St. Urbain's not the same as it's written in your books There's no streetcar 55 and the cyclists never look No children on the street, people driving so fast One morning in the fall, I got into an accident Still there's nowhere else in Canada I call home Even though on this big island I feel so alone J'essaie parler Français, it comes out malade Mais sans Montréal, I'd be so fucking sad St. Laurent has never been the same Only tourists and old folks call it the Main Still, in 300 years some things never change See a show, have a drink, eat chow mein When I walked these streets at 10 years old I felt dreams And I still feel the same when I sit on a metro seat I was so sad and so scared for so long 'Til I moved to Montréal and started playing my songs Being well through harmony Being well through harmony Being well through harmony Being well through harmony Hey did you see that hype new post-punk band recently? They're going to be in Pitchfork in less than a year. How could you ever say St. Viateur bagels are better than Fairmount? A hot Fairmount is the best. One time in Anjou I stole a tank top at Wal-Mart. Sometimes I forget how beautiful this place really is, but then I remember.
