The Courteeners – The Dilettante lyrics
[Verse 1]
Maybe I'll go travelling and marry a French girl
Improve my verbs
And I can tell her that I think that her world
Is nothing short of superb
Get a cheap flight home, and take her to my mothers
Dream up absurd scenarios where I get on well with her brothers

[Chorus]
Take her to town and see how new love beats jealousy
You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Who wants to get away, we wanna get away
Let's escape and make mistakes again
You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Who wants to get away, we wanna get away
Let's escape and make mistakes again

[Verse 2]
Maybe I'll unravel and seek solace in Paris
Get me away from here
Kick my loafers on the banks of the Saint Martin
It's such a preferable atmosphere
And if you happen to be there, go ahead and make my day
And we can chat about the labour reforms like we know
Sipping on a Beaujolais

[Chorus]
Take me to town and see how new love beats jealousy
You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Who wants to get away, we wanna get away
Let's escape and make mistakes again

You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Who wants to get away, we wanna get away
Let's escape and make mistakes again

You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Who wants to get away, we wanna get away
Let's escape and make mistakes again

You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Who wants to get away, we wanna get away
Let's escape and make mistakes again
