The Shadows of Paris lyrics

Why must we meet in the shadows of Paris

Where hardly a star seems to shine?

Why can't we meet in the sunlight of Paris

Where Paris can see you and I?

Have you come to me from another

Whose lips you have tried?

Do you still belong to another?

Is that why we hide?

Why am I cold in the sunlight of Paris

Where laughter and song fill the skies?

Why am I warm in the shadows of Paris

When I know that dawn means goodbye?

(2x)
