Ooh la la, ooh la la la, heartache in Brussels
Ooh la la, ooh la la la, love is a puzzle

Something follows my ex around
Not only guys, and women’s frowns
Something sultry, something French
A colorful cloud of foreign scents

Ooh la la, ooh la la la, heartache in Brussels
Ooh la la, ooh la la la, love is a puzzle

I got keys to her fancy car
I moved in above her bistro bar
She said, “bonjour”, but her eyes said more
No “au revoir” as she floated out the door

Ooh la la, ooh la la la, heartache in Brussels
Ooh la la, ooh la la la, love is a puzzle

I recall something small she called “amour”
Ooh la la, ooh la la la, heartache in Brussels

On our dates, she would take control
Once I’d satisfied her soul
She was my my gallic Taylor Swift
She’d say, “relax, enjoy, it’s a gift”

Ooh la la ooh la la la, Ooh la la ooh la la la,
Ooh la la, ooh la la la Ooh la la, ooh la la la

I’m just a man, but her coq-au-vin was the best I ever had
Ooh la la, ooh la la, oh, love is a puzzle

Ooh la la, ooh la la la, Ooh la la, ooh la la la,
Ooh la la, ooh la la la
Love is a puzzle
