We met on the street
I would say, by chance
She still had that look
That grace, that swing, that charm

She was super high
Her smile was something special
When she slapped me
She put things in their place, mmm

Then she opened her mouth to me
Like freedom
We had a few drinks
And she started crying in the bar

Time passed
It was her and me
Two in the city, mmm
In the city

She asked me how it had been
How I chose to leave
If I had any children
And if I was ever so happy

I asked her if she was alone
She sure knew how to pretend
What naivety, she was not a fool
She was the same Mount Sinai

It passed, it passed
Our fifteen minutes of fame passed
It passed, it passed
But we still knew how to laugh
The night passed us by
Between the whisky and the coke
It passed us by
But we still knew how to laugh, oh-oh, mmm

All weekend
We didn't let go
When I woke up that Monday
She was no longer there

Time passed
It was her and me
Two in the city

It passed, it passed
Our fifteen minutes of fame passed
It passed, it passed
But we still knew how to laugh, oh
The night passed us by
Between the whisky and the coke
It passed us by
But we still knew how to laugh, oh-mmm

Two in the city
It was her and me
Two in the city
Our fifteen minutes of fame
Mmm-mmm
It was her and me
Two in the city
Oh
Two in the city
Two in the city
Mmm-mmm
