LYRICS:
EDDIE
MANY, MANY YEARS AGO, LATE ONE PARIS NIGHT
WE WANDERED ‘TIL THE MORNING GLOW BATHED YOUR FACE IN LIGHT.
UNDERNEATH A LEMON SKY YOU SAID YOU’D LOVE ME ‘TIL YOU DIE.
AH, PARIS. MY PARIS. A TOI JE RETOURS TOUJOUR.
LA LA LA LA LA.
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA.
PARIS. MY PARIS. DONNE MOI TA COEUR MAINTENANT.
LA LA LA LA LA.
HARRY
BA BA BA BA BA BA BA. DA.
EDDIE
NOW THE NIGHTS ARE LONG AND DARK. I NEVER WATCH THE SKY.
I SLEEP RIGHT THROUGH THE GLARE OF DAWN AND HERE’S THE REASON WHY:
BOTH
UNDERNEATH THAT PARIS SKY,
THE THINGS YOU ME WERE A LIE.
AH, PARIS.
MY PARIS.
EDDIE
A TOI JE RETOURS TOUJOURS.
HARRY
I WILL RETURN TO YOU
EDDIE
SINCE YOU WENT AWAY.
EVEN SUMER DAYS ARE GRAY
BOTH
IN PARIS. MY PARIS.
I’VE LOOKED FOR YOU HIGH AND LOW
HEARD YOUR STEPS RETREAT DOWN A DARKENED STREET
AU REVOIR.
EDDIE
SHADOWS ON THE WALL.
HARRY
WERE YOU THERE AT ALL?
BOTH
AH, PARIS!
