Album: At the End of a Perfect Day

A Rainy Night in Paris

It's a rainy night in Paris,
And the harbour lights are low.
He must leave his love in Paris
Before the winter snow;
On a lonely street in Paris
He held her close to say,
";We'll meet again in Paris
When there are flowers on the Champs-Elysees.";
";How long"; she said ";How long,
And will your love be strong,
When you're across the sea,
Will your heart remember me?...";
Then she gave him words to turn to,
When the winter nights were long,
";Nous serons encore amoureux
Avec les couleurs du printemps...";
";And then"; she said ";And then,
Our love will grow again.";
Ah but in her eyes he sees
Her words of love are only words to please...
And now the lights of Paris
Grow dim and fade away,
And I know by the light of Paris
I will never see her again...
