Paris |
Nobody left in the airport lounge |
They cleaned the ashtrays |
TV’s just wound down |
I’ve got to wait till morning |
I’ve got to last the night |
I’ve only got one book |
To see me through my flight |
But when I get to Paris |
We’ll paint all our portraits |
In brush-strokes of yellow |
And christen the canvas |
The left bank is crying |
For colour to crown it |
Like the roof of a palace |
We’ll drink in the amber |
When I get to Paris |
You were the best of Montmartre Street life |
You signed the tablecloth |
Art has its price |
It’s so hard to hold on |
To the ghost of your breed |
It takes ambition |
To call the colours you need |
I’ve got to wait till morning |
I’ve got to last the night |
I’ve only got one book |
To see me through the flight |
