Paris - Édith Piaf

Coming back from Paris on the train

I really didn’t care if the journey took all day

Trying to turn the pages of my magazine

While trying to keep a hold of your hand

And ordering a coffee that I wouldn’t ever drink

Just to keep you and Paris on my mind

Just to keep you and Paris on my mind

I didn’t know it would be the last time

The last time I saw you

At Waterloo we went our separate ways

When I got in my cab I didn’t turn and wave

Didn’t go to work, just went to bed

Trying to keep you and Paris on my mind

Trying to keep you and Paris on my mind

I didn’t know it would be the last time

The last time I saw you

I phoned your office this afternoon

They said they hadn’t heard anything from you

It’s been seven days without a word

I have to keep you and Paris on my mind

I have to keep you and Paris on my mind

I didn’t know it would be the last time

The last time I saw you

Going back to Paris on the train

Raining and without you, it’s not the same

I have to do this journey one more time

Just to keep you and Paris on my mind

Just to keep you and Paris on my mind

I didn’t know it would be the last time

The last time I saw you

The last time I saw you

The last time I saw you

The last time I saw you
