about

This song was another one created one night during a songwriting marathon with friends and collaborators Ed Scheiblin and Ben Wakeman. I love Paris, so I did my best to capture the romance of Paris as well as Ed did in his lyrics.

lyrics

I wish I could find Someone I’d love To take To Paris
Someone to laugh Through the gray of Saint Germaine
A heartland girl With big city eyes Who’d say
The French invented the kiss
So please let’s never leave Paris

Since I don’t have one Maybe I’d find A love In Paris
Sitting alone Staring at me Through the mist
Her hand at her hair A scarf at her neck She’d say
Your touch is what I will miss
So please let’s never leave Paris

Left Bank or right Montmartre by day
and the metro at night A painter’s delight
Where even the blind, they say, can find Love
In the city of light

Love seems so foreign Out of season In my Nomad town
Tourist by birth I always stayed Near to home
I’ve been so close But never quite there I pray
For a god to grant me this
Just one time let me see Paris
