A Sunday off in gay Paris
|
I was bound for the sacred street
|
Gods have dropped upon Montmartre
|
But not Rue de la Guitare
|
Mais pas Rue de la Guitare
|
|
Like melodies that never fade
|
These girls who found their masquerades
|
' is still a strange bizarre down on Rue de la Guitare
|
On Rue de la Guitare
|
|
Windows filled with long lost dreams
|
Unfinished songs on rusty strings
|
From Nazareth across the sea
|
She'd somehow caught up with me
|
Parfait a compris
|
|
I read the wood and felt the skies
|
I spoke with knights in smoky bars
|
How many songs, how many beers
|
Had cost her journey here
|
|
A toast to those who love to hear
|
A D18 play light foot clear
|
Music still lives in shops and bars
|
Along Rue de la Guitare
|
Rue de la Guitare
|
|
Now over here people sing
|
Comment ca va monsieur Buffett?
|
On veux voir une chanson a jouée
|
Vie Rue de la Guitare
