Went to Paris Lyrics

You went to Paris

Walked out on the terrace

Under a million stars

The stardust gets shaken

It's there for the takin'

But who knows how close or how far

You met a model

You had a few bottles

Of sweet, red Beaujolais wine

And so it got sillier

Once you got familiar

It was only a matter of time

Rag along, ye vagabond

De la montagne á la mer

You can retrace your steps or step beyond

Life happens anywhere

Yes, then you lost your passport and Visa

Trying to see Mona Lisa

She got some hungry people around

Well, maybe here in this chaos

And the thoughts that betray us

Silence is the most honest sound

So you took to religion

You changed your position

Like Rodin, Van Gogh and Rimbaud

You had dreams and great visions

Such cosmic decisions

Ain't it funny how quickly they go?

Rag along, ye vagabond

De la montagne á la mer

You can retrace your steps or step beyond

Life happens anywhere

You came to the vineyard

You tried to look inward

Tried to find something to hold

But life is a strange thing

And everything's changing

You grow up and then you grow old

Well, she might be behind it

Or maybe you'll find it

Maybe in Venice or Rome

Well, the grass just gets greener

And greener between her

And just what it means to be home

Rag, rag along, ye vagabond

De la montagne á la mer

You can retrace your steps or step beyond

Life happens anywhere

Tu allais à Paris

Sortais sur la terrasse

Sous un million d'étoiles

La poussière d'étoiles est secouée

C'est là pour le prise

Mais qui sait que c'est près ou loin

Tu rencontrais un modèle

Tu avais quelques bouteilles

Du Beaujolais rouge doux

Et donc c'est devenu plus fou

Quand tu t'es familiarisé

Ce n'était qu'une question de temps

Agissez, vagabond

De la montagne à la mer

Vous pouvez revenir sur vos pas ou aller au-delà

La vie se passe n'importe où

Heard you're still in Paris

Out on that terrace

Every night with the stars

And though it's so distant

And seems non-existent

It's only an instant

You're with her wherever you are

Rag along, ye vagabond

De la montagne á la mer

You can retrace your steps or step beyond

Life happens anywhere
