I found a lover in Paris 
With greenish eyes and brown hair 
By the Seine she was reading 
In the crisp morning air 
Little freckles on her little nose 
And that nose in Voltaire 
I didn't speak a word 
Just whispered a prayer 
Her name was beautiful 
She was named for a queen 
I knew I just had to ask and 
Hoped she'd know what I mean 
Won't you

"Come walk down the wooded path 
I will keep you safe
I don't know who I am yet 
But my heart I must obey 
Kick up some cobblestones 
When there is nothing left to say 
I don't know who I am yet 
But my heart I must obey 
And we can dance on Billy Shake's grave 
And we can dance on Billy Shake's grave" 

I had the last lover in Paris 
And like Casanova fled the scene 
Our hearts were young and wild 
And everything in between 
I had the last lover in Pair-e 
But did you wait for me? 
I am not a jealous man 
How could I be? 
When I had the last lover in Paris 
Dressed up on a balcony 
Our song interwove
Into sweet harmony 
And we sang

I cried outside of Paris 
By the old cedar trees 
Our love song was rewrote 
Into a eulogy 
Now I'm back from Paris 
Can you forgive me? 
I was strange in a strange land 
And so lonely 
My thoughts were on you 
If only in my mind's back 
I'll forget those times, forget those eyes 
If you'd let me unpack 

I still think of Paris 
Even when I lie with you 
Our love was made to die young 
Innocent and true
