lyrics

You said you walked right into a love tryst
That you saw working in movie last year
And your eyes met like two lovers on the Seine
When there was nothing to fear
Except the fall of Berlin
It's no accident
It's not what I meant to say

You find yourself back home with the same clothes
But the street signs and graffiti have changed
The night sounds so different here
And it's all you got to not cry out in pain
It's no accident
It's not what I meant to say

You thought of taking off
With a suitcase and a flashlight
On a mission to the moon
To disprove the words of the enemies
Of the Kennedys
Who said we got there too soon
It's no accident
It's what I meant to say
It's no accident
It's what I meant to say
It's no accident
It's what I meant to say
