Somewhere Over Paris
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.
I could count the hours since you said
Goodbye
Or I could linger in the memory of your kiss
I could find another, give it one more try
But she would seem like nothing after this...
By now you're somewhere over Paris
Sailing on a journey that's never through
And me I'm here in the heartland
(in the heartland)
Trying hard and wondering why (why)
You're over Paris, but I'm not over you
And every time you go away, every time you're
Gone
I wonder darling what I'm gonna do
Feel like a singer without a song
Without your saving grace that pulls me
Through...
By now you're somewhere over Paris
Sailing on a journey that's never through
And me I'm here in the heartland
(in the heartland)
Trying hard and wondering why (why)
You're over Paris, but I'm not over you
And it's time like these that try men's souls
It's times like these you bleed
Times like these you don't need to be told
What it is that you really need
And tonight, well I found the answer
As I watched you walk away
Was there something I could have said or done
Something to make you stay...
So set a course to somewhere and sail on through
But just remember, only your heart can set you
Free
And maybe you've forgotten
Or really never knew
That everything that touches you touches me...
By now you're somewhere over Paris
Sailing on a journey that's never through
And me I'm here in the heartland
(in the heartland)
Trying hard and wondering why (why)
You're over Paris, but I'm not over you
You're over Paris, but I'm not over you
You're over Paris, but I'm not over you
Somewhere over Paris
Somewhere over Paris
