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

Well 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 youre 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 de 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 lights of Paris

I will never see her again
