Lyrics:
There we met and there we parted
By the lovely river Seine
Two young lovers broken hearted
For we knew we'd loved in vain
And though years may go
Some day I know
She'll come to Paris again
And I'll find her where I lost her
By the lovely river Seine
There we met and there we parted
By the lovely river Seine
Two young lovers broken hearted
For we knew we'd loved in vain
And though years may go
Some day I know
She'll come to Paris again
And I'll find her where I lost her
By the lovely river Seine
There we met and there we parted
By the lovely river Seine
Two young lovers broken hearted
For we knew we'd loved in vain
And though years may go
Some day I know
She'll come to Paris again
And I'll find her where I lost her
By the lovely river Seine
There we met and there we parted
By the lovely river Seine
Two young lovers broken hearted
For we knew we'd loved in vain
And though years may go
Some day I know
She'll come to Paris again
And I'll find her where I lost her
By the lovely river Seine
One night along the river at st. Germaine de pre
I first met my beloved at a small sidewalk cafe
We walked along the river, shadows passing by
But we only saw each other, the shining water, and the sky
The seine, the seine, when will I again
Meet her there, greet her there
On the moonlit banks of the seine?
Mademoiselle Mademoiselle of gay Paris think back think back remember me
Mademoiselle Mademoiselle in dreams I see wour smiling face and gay Paris
We walked and talked by the river Seine
Then we drew our hearts and carved our names
I loved you then and you loved me think back Mademoiselle my used to be
A soldier boy I long for love away from home so you are a girl so all alone
The war is wrong Mademoiselle and so worry but the love we shared just had to be
We walk and talk...
Edith Piaf was the Little Sparrow
She flew high above the Paris streets
Saint of the bars and bistros
Chanteuse of a tear-stained sheet
She sang for the drunks and the sailor boys
Who'd sunk as low as low can get
I read she kicked a three-pack habit once
On chocolate cigarettes
And she didn't have a smoke
Though she wanted one
Didn't take a drink
Though it hurt her some
She stared across the
River Seine hummin'
"No Regrets" Pullin' on a chocolate cigarette
Oh, those chocolate cigarettes I've seen 'em in my youth
There beside the Hershey bars,
The Almond Joys, the Baby Ruths
I kicked a three-pack habit once I won a hundred dollar bet
With the help of chewin' gum
And
And I didn't have a smoke
Though I wanted one I didn't take a drink
Though it hurt me some I thought of
Little Sparrow hummin'
"No Regrets" Pullin' on a chocolate cigarette
It's an Edith Piaf night tonight
As I put her records on
All that smoky passion
In every line of every song
Old love affairs and wasteful habits
We'll all survive them yet
Memories drown in coffee grounds
And chocolate cigarettes
She didn't have a smoke
Though she wanted one
She didn't take a drink
Though it hurt her some
She stared across the River Seine hummin'
"No Regrets"
Pullin' on a chocolate cigarette Pullin' on a chocolate cigarette
Edith Piaf was the Little Sparrow
She flew high above the Paris streets
Saint of the bars and bistros
Chanteuse of a tear-stained sheet
She sang for the drunks and the sailor boys
Who'd sunk as low as low can get
I read she kicked a three-pack habit once
On chocolate cigarettes
And she didn't have a smoke
Though she wanted one
Didn't take a drink
Though it hurt her some
She stared across the
River Seine hummin'
"No Regrets" Pullin' on a chocolate cigarette
Oh, those chocolate cigarettes I've seen 'em in my youth
There beside the Hershey bars,
The Almond Joys, the Baby Ruths
I kicked a three-pack habit once I won a hundred dollar bet
With the help of chewin' gum
And
And I didn't have a smoke
Though I wanted one I didn't take a drink
Though it hurt me some I thought of
Little Sparrow hummin'
"No Regrets" Pullin' on a chocolate cigarette
It's an Edith Piaf night tonight
As I put her records on
All that smoky passion
In every line of every song
Old love affairs and wasteful habits
We'll all survive them yet
Memories drown in coffee grounds
And chocolate cigarettes
She didn't have a smoke
Though she wanted one
She didn't take a drink
Though it hurt her some
She stared across the River Seine hummin'
"No Regrets"
Pullin' on a chocolate cigarette Pullin' on a chocolate cigarette

In the city of lights,
Where the Eiffel shines
Where the Seine river flows,
Oh it's so divine
From the Louvre Museum
To Notre Dame
It's the city of love,
It's the city of wine
Paris, the city of love, oh so grand
The city of love, the city of dreams
Paris, the city of love, oh so grand
The city of love, the city of dreams
In the gardens of Versailles,
We'll dance all night
With the stars shining bright,
Oh what a sight
With the memories so grand,
We'll always stand
Paris, my darling, you'll always
Be in my heart
As a teenage girl in Texas, raised on dust and weeds and cactus
She first saw pictures of the river Seine
From her window late at night, she'd pretend the stars were lights
Of the cafes in the St.
The opening ceremony of the Olympics will take place this Friday and will begin by passing from the Austerlitz Bridge to the Eiffel Tower, along the Seine River. For the first time in the history of the games, the ceremony will be held outside a stadium.
Dig in boys for an extended stay
Those were the final orders to come down that day
Waiting to be saved in the Philippines
You'll wait forever for the young Marines
Now I believe to be here is right
But I have to say I'm scared tonight
Crouching in this hole with a mouth full of sand
What comes first the country or the man
Look at those slanted eyes coming up over the hill
Catching us by surprise, it's time to kill or be killed
Over here, over there, it's the same everywhere
A boy cries out for his mama before he dies for his home
All my life I wanted to be
As clever and strong as my best friend Lee
We grew up together along Half Moon Bay
Lee was Japanese, born in the USA
When Tommy was fighting Jerry along the River Seine
Me and Lee wanted to do the same
Then they bombed Pearl Harbor at the break of day
I was headed for these islands while Lee was hauled away
They said look at his slanted eyes, he's guilty as guilty can be
Sent here as enemy spies to sabotage the land of the free
I never got home, my platoon was never saved
That little fox hole became my island grave
Lee got out of jail but a prisoner he remained
Till he ended his own life to lose that ball and chain
And they said oh little slanted eyes can't you forgive and forget
And he said, oh Mr Friendly Ghost
Can you catch water in a net?
Dig in boys for an extended stay
Those were the final orders to come down that day
Waiting to be saved in the Philippines
You'll wait forever for the young Marines
Now I believe to be here is right
But I have to say I'm scared tonight
Crouching in this hole with a mouth full of sand
What comes first the country or the man
Look at those slanted eyes coming up over the hill
Catching us by surprise, it's time to kill or be killed
Over here, over there, it's the same everywhere
A boy cries out for his mama before he dies for his home
All my life I wanted to be
As clever and strong as my best friend Lee
We grew up together along Half Moon Bay

Spring breeze blows through the streets of Paris Seine River flows quietly, gently swaying Trees along the promenade whisper in the wind Walking here is tranquil, a pleasant feeling
Looking at the Louvre Museum Eiffel Tower stands tall above Passing by the Arc de Triomphe Leading my steps towards the quiet streets
The city where I spent my childhood Memories suddenly come flooding back Unchanged Paris, and I've grown a little Old streets now dearly beloved
Always remaining in my heart The city lights gently illuminate What used to be mysterious, now Paris in spring, growing ever dearer
The city where I spent my childhood Memories suddenly come flooding back Unchanged Paris, and I've grown a little Old streets now dearly beloved
Wrapped in the spring sunlight I walk the streets of Paris once more With memories, time flows by Comfortable days in the springtime Paris
MARLENE
As I walk along the river 'Seine'
I think I see her on the lane,
Marlene
As I reach her hands
I won't feel anything but sand
Marlene
Je T'aime,
Marlene
People of the night
are now coming up into sight
singing my pain,
Strangers in a car
believe the love song is to last
ignoring pain
Shadows of the past
blowing candle lights
witnessing at night
Marlene
Shadows in my heart
Call on me and part
whispering your name
Marlene, OOHHHH
As we drove along the river 'Seine'
we made a now
but vows are vain,
Marlene
We promised that we would meet again
but no one showed back on the lane,
Now love is a thing that I came buy
A ring behind your window pane,
Marlene
Souvenirs will haunt me till I die
I feel no pain
no one's to blame
Shadows of the past
blowing candle lights
witnessing at night
Marlene
Shadows in my heart
Call on me and part
whispering your name
Marlene, OOHHH

Free Mojito opens a regular Tuesday night
You turn down his invite
Try to hide from the light
Until she walks upto the bar
Hey girl
Why are you drinking by yourself
Oooooooooh
French little do I speak
But you
Gave me a sense of Déjà vu
And everything fades out
What's that all about
Everything fades in
You see that French girl
Salut Here you are
Standing on the top of the Effiel Tower
Taking a stroll along the Seine River
Oh she overshadows Mona Lisa
Hey girl
Why don't we ride off into the sunset
Oooooooooooh
French little do I speak
But you
Gave me a sense of Déjà vu
And everything fades out
What's that all about
Everything fades in
You see that French girl
First time you kiss her lips
First time you touch her hips
First time you find yourself but
Wonder where she is now
And everything fades out
What's that all about
Everything fades in
You see that French girl
But everything fades out
What's that all about
Everything fades in
You see that French girl
First time you find yourself
Last time you saw her face

Au Revroir
I feel so lost and lonely
Standing by the river Seine
I don't know how I got here or why I came
But everywhere I see her smiling face
I remember
We met somewhere in the back streets
In this city of another age
And talking broken English 'til the darkness came
And in my room she called me by my name
And she whispered
Paris dies in the morning
That's something that they never say
They never tell you
Paris dies in the morning light
You'd never think it late at night, no, no
It disappears in the sunshine
It's something that they never say
They never tell you
Paris dies in the morning light
It's always gonna be that way
When we made love in that hotel
Like I never made before
Thought I could die
When she whispered slow
Marai toujours
She was wild and enchanting
The night was like a dream
We danced and sang the
Sweetest harmony
The words come back so clear
I remember when we sang
Paris dies in the morning
That's something that they never say
They never tell you
Paris dies in the morning light
You'd never think it late at night, no, no
[Solo]
When I awoke in the morning
She was nowhere to be found
That's why I'm standing
Waiting a t this river's edge
I know we'll never meet again
It was true when she said
Paris dies in the morning
(It ends this way)
The moment when it steals your heart
And then it loves you
Paris dies I the morning light
You'd never think it late at night, no no
She disappeared in the morning light
She said that it would end this way
Did not believe her
Paris dies in the morning light
I know we'll never meet again
[Solo]
I know we'll never meet again
She's gone
Paris dies in the morning
Every day I'm closer to you
Every day I'm closer to you
Every day I'm closer to you
Every day I'm closer to you
We never met but I read about you at school
We never met but I read about you at school
I'm in love with a historical figure
I'm in love with a historical figure
You and me forever swimming in the river Seine
My love for you it will never end
You and me forever swimming in the river Seine
My love for you it will never end
I'm in love with a historical figure
I'm in love with a historical figure
We never met but I read about you at school
We never met but I read about you at school
Every day I'm closer to you
Every day I'm closer to you
Every day I'm closer to you
Every day I'm closer to you
Every day I'm closer to you
Every day I'm closer to you
