Paris Lyrics
It's that time to transform
To come around, I'm changing
Ooh there's an angel knocking on my window
Trying to tell me where to go next
This small town without you
It feels cold, it's creeping
Moving on, I'll look ahead instead
Spirit divide, drift along
I waved her goodbye, I carried on
Trams pass, my black dress
Folded on a big mess
Changing my next flight to Paris
The hourglass, it tick tock
Too fast for our destiny
I got a full drawer of letters, remember
It was Paris, you said we were gonna meet
Why your answer machine still on?
It's the oddest feeling since you're gone
A part of me drift away with you
And will never return
Spirit divide, drift along
I waved her goodbye, I carried on
Trams pass, my black dress
Folded on a big mess
Changing my next flight to Paris
Spirit divide
I waved her goodbye
Trams pass
My black dress
Folded on a big mess
Changing my next flight
La Suede est out je vis
Mais c'est a Paris que je me sens en vie
Je sens que je pourrais m'y poser
Des vacances
Et ne jamais rentrer
To come around, I'm changing
Ooh there's an angel knocking on my window
Trying to tell me where to go next
This small town without you
It feels cold, it's creeping
Moving on, I'll look ahead instead
I waved her goodbye, I carried on
Trams pass, my black dress
Folded on a big mess
Changing my next flight to Paris
Too fast for our destiny
I got a full drawer of letters, remember
It was Paris, you said we were gonna meet
Why your answer machine still on?
It's the oddest feeling since you're gone
A part of me drift away with you
And will never return
I waved her goodbye, I carried on
Trams pass, my black dress
Folded on a big mess
Changing my next flight to Paris
I waved her goodbye
Trams pass
My black dress
Folded on a big mess
Changing my next flight
Mais c'est a Paris que je me sens en vie
Je sens que je pourrais m'y poser
Des vacances
Et ne jamais rentrer

Little Dragon posted these lyrics to their instagram, so I transcribed from there
This song, in my opinion, seems to be about the lost of someone and how the person is coping with the loss. They are deciding not to dwell and fester in sorrow, but to change, become a better person, and move on. Instead of going back to where they use to be, they go to the place they always dreamed of going. In this case, Paris. Or course things feel weird without them...In the end it's signifying that they don't necessarily need them in order to continue living life..or that they can survive without them--they are strong on their own.
@MuzickLvr yes, I agree. The lyrics have a pretty clear statement. Put the part I still don't quite get is in the very beginning "oh my god it's green the fire, go!" I'm somehow very intrigued in that sentence...
