The Last Time I Saw Paris (From "Lady Be Good") |
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 |
