Ne Me Quitte Pas Songtext / Lyric

Down in Paris

They lose their ballets and their lipped mouths in the night

And stumbling through the street

They say, Sir, do you got a light?

And if you do, then you're my friend

And if you don't, then you're my foe

And if you are a deity

Of any sort, then please don't go



Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ah, ah, ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas






Down on Lexington

They walk in new shoes

Stuck to aging feet, and

Close their eyes and open

And not recognize the aging street, and

Think about the things were right

When they were young and veins were tight, and

If you are the Ghost of Christmas Past

Then won't you stay the night?



Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ah, ah, ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Oh, ooh, ooh

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ah, ah, ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas



Down in Bronxy Bronx

The kids go sledding

Down snow-covered slopes, and

Frozen noses, frozen toes

The frozen city starts to glow, and

Yes, they know that it will pass

And, yes, they know New York will thaw, but

If you're a friend of any sort

Then play along and catch a cold



Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ah, ah, ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ah, ah, ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas



I love Paris in the rain

I love Paris in the rain

I love

I love

I love

In the rain

I love Paris in the rain

I love Paris in the rain

And I love

I love

I love

In the rain

I love

I love

I love

In the rain



Down in Paris

They walk fast

That is, unless they're walking slow, and

In cafés they look away

That is, unless they look right in, and

In the corners I get lost

That is, unless I'm getting found, and

If you are the ghost of New York City

Won't you stick around



Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ah, ah, ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

Ah, ah, ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas



I love Paris in the rain

I love Paris in the rain

I love

I love

I love

In the rain

I love Paris in the rain

I love Paris in the rain

Man, I love

I love

I love in the rain

And I love

I love

I love in the rain...

I love

I love

In the rain

In the rain

Oh, I love

In the rain

In the rain

In the rain



Ne me quitte. pas!

Ne me quitte. pas!

Ne me quitte. pas!
