Maybe Not Today, Maybe Not Tomorrow

When you stormed through

The haze of smoke

To stop the song,

All the love I tried to chill

Revived.

When the spotlight reached

Through the foggy night

To show the way

To escape the dread,

I cried.

I know I asked you

To think for me.

You said I’d regret it

For the rest of my life

If I stayed.

You must remember this,

Wherever you find yourself,

In my heart I’ll never leave you.

We’ll always have

Paris.
