The Seine

[Verse 1]
One night along the river at St. Germain de Pre
I first met my beloved at a small sidewalk café
We walked along the river, the shadows passing by
But we only saw each other, the shining water and the sky

[Chorus]
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again
Meet her there, greet her there
On the moonlit banks of the Seine?

[Verse 2]
Standing there across the river, mid sound of horn and tram
In all her quiet beauty, the cathedral Notre Dame
And as we passed beside her, I said a little prayer
That when this dream was over I'd awake and find you there

[Chorus]
The Seine, the Seine when will I again
Meet her there, greet her there
On the moonlit banks of the Seine?

[Verse 3]
We walked along the river, 'til dawn was coming nigh
Beneath the Eiffel Tower we said our last goodbye
There on that splendid morning, I left you all in tears
And the beauty of that hour will shine within my through the years

[Chorus]
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again
Meet her there, greet her there
On the moonlit banks of the Seine?

[Outro]
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again
Meet her there on the Seine?
