Lyrics
The Paris Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She told me things I'd heard before
But somehow when she spoke they sounded new
That's not a very easy thing to do
First stories turned the strangest corners
But set inside her smile they sounded true
That's not a very easy thing to do
I didn't look for any reasons
I closed my eyes and let her lead me
Though I'd been to all the places
Still I let her take me
´Round and ´round in circles
When she wanted to
That's not a very easy thing to do
Now she's gone, I knew she'd go
But she never guessed just what she put me thru
That's not a very easy thing to do
That's not a very easy thing to do
