Postcard from Paris

I remember when my heart caught the fever

You were standing all alone in the summer heat

I was with my boyfriend, new boyfriend

He was as sweet as he could be

One look at you and I was through

My heart switched up on me

Like a postcard from Paris

When I've seen the real thing

It's like finding out your diamond

Was from her old promise ring

Coming back from your fortune teller

She read your cards upside down

The meanest thing you ever did is come around

And now I'm ruined

(I'm ruined)

In the evening you can catch me daydreaming

Did that moment send you reeling just like me

I should've gone over, right over

I should've never let you leave

But it's the never knowing that keeps this going

And drives me crazy

Like a postcard from Paris

When I've seen the real thing

It's like finding out your diamond

Was from her old promise ring

Come back from your fortune teller

She read your cards upside down

The meanest thing you ever did is come around

Just when I thought things were alright

My eyes played tricks on my mind

Will I ever be satisfied

'Cause all I ever seem to find

Is a postcard from Paris

When I need the real thing

It's like finding out your diamond

Is from an old promise ring

Come back from your fortune teller

She read your cards upside down

The meanest thing you ever did

The cruelest thing you ever did

The meanest thing you ever did is come around

I am ruined

I'm ruined

I am ruined, yeah

I am ruined, yeah
