Lyrics from snippets

❲?❳ to the Eiffel Tower
And I stood out in the rain
It was some empty ❲?❳
I could not explain
As I stood along that river
Where the lovers left their chains
It reminded me of everyone
I had ever tried to claim

You reminded me of the river
With your eyes both green and blue
You remind me of everything
Beautiful and true
