I'm leaving for Paris
No, I don't think that I'll see you
I'm leaving for Paris
No, I don't think that I need to
So I'm leaving for Paris
Won't you try to take care of yourself?

I pray you won't follow through the crooked streets behind me
I pray you won't follow
Like so many who have known me
So I'm leaving for Paris
Don't you try to find out where I am
Just you try to take care of yourself

And when I get there
I'll lose the name you gave me
And when I get there
How happy I will then be
So I'm leaving for Paris
Won't you try to take care of yourself?
Just you try to take care of yourself
'Cause I'm leaving; yes, I'm leaving
'Cause I'm leaving; yes, I'm leaving for Paris
Goodbye
