Translation
Bilingual
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, her streets are where they were
But there is no sign of her
She has left the Siene
ย
The last time I saw Paris, her heart was warm and gay
I heard the laughter of her heart in every street cafรฉ
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 young and gay
No matter how they change her, I'll remember her that way
ย
Oh lร lร , the last time I saw Paris (Eartha starts speaking in French)
ย
Oh lร lร , I dodged the same old taxicabs, that I had dodged before
Not that I'm that old
The music from their squeaky voices were
Comment dit-on... la musique? oh
The last time I saw Paris, her heart was young and gay
No matter how they change her, I'll remember her that way
