lyrics

When I was young
Still twenty one
I traveled cross the sea
Our port of call
Was rather small
But bustling and free
And though it was raining
The air still smelt clean
For everything around us was green

There’s restaurants
And debutantes
On every corner street
They walk alone
On cobblestone
Where none of it’s concrete
I stood on that front deck
My jaw dropped in awe
For that was the first time I saw

Paris, Paris
Shinning and new
Brimming with life and so much to do
And on that bow I made a vow
Once we had sailed away
I would get back to Paris someday

A girl I knew
At twenty two
Was soon to be my wife
We packed a car
And traveled far
to start a brand new life
We found an apartment
In the city by the bay
Thought it’d go on forever that way
We’d soon agree
And start to see
That this was bound to end
With money tight
We’d start to fight
Her bags were packed again
In an empty apartment
With the new scars I’ve earned
I dreamt of the day I’d return to

Paris, Paris
Peaceful and still
With jazz music playing from each windowsill
And starting now
I make a vow
That though it’s far away
I will get back to Paris someday

Sometimes it takes time
To learn and to know
When’s the right time to stay
And the right time to go
But now things are changing
I see how much I’ve grown
And how much I’ve learned on my own

So Paris, dear Paris
Shinning and new
Finally I’m ready to come back to you
Just wait for me
I’ll never leave
I’ll travel just as fast
Off I go
This I know
I’ll be home in Paris
At last
