Frenchman For The Night |
| From his driftwood castle |
| Comes a song I’ve heard before |
| A scratchy gramophone cuts to the bone |
| «La Vie En Rose» arpeggios |
| So the dream begins |
| And the song is amplified |
| Buy the Beaujolais, on Bastille day |
| He dances in the tide |
| By the light of the moon |
| He’s a Frenchman for the night |
| By the light of the moon |
| It’ll be all right |
| Well it takes him back |
| To the days of love and war |
| And the girl he knew with eyes of blue |
| Waiting on the shore |
| If he’d only known |
| How the years would fly on by |
| Such a simple crime, he’s run out of time |
| So he reaches for the sky |
| Blame it on the Champs Elysees |
| Blame it on a tune |
| Blame it on the stroke of Monet |
| But you can’t escape the moon |
| He sees the stars above |
| As the floor to heavens light |
| While the angels taunt «C'est une nuit blanche» |
| He’s a Frenchman for the night |
| From a driftwood castle |
| Comes a song I’ve heard before |
| A scratchy gramophone cuts to the bone |
| «La Vie En Rose» arpeggios |
