The Last Time I Saw Paris |
| A lady known as Paris, Romantic and Charming |
| Has left her old companions and faded from view |
| Lonely men with lonely eyes are seeking her in vain |
| Her streets are where they were, but there’s no sign of her |
| She has left the Seine |
| The last time I saw Paris, her heart was warm and gay |
| I heard the laughter of her heart in every street cafe |
| The last time I saw Paris, her trees were dressed for spring |
| And lovers walked beneath those trees and birds found songs to sing |
| I dodged the same old taxicabs that I had dodged for years |
| The chorus of their squeaky horns was music to my ears |
| The last time I saw Paris, her heart was warm and gay |
| No matter how they change her, I’ll remember her that way |
| I’ll think of happy hours, and people who shared them |
| Old women, selling flowers, in markets at dawn |
| Children who applauded, Punch and Judy in the park |
| And those who danced at night and kept our Paris bright |
| 'Til the town went dark |
