Is it far to Paris
Is it long to go?
Is she waiting still?
How I long to know

From her tower I fell
Just for looking down
Like a man insane
In her river did I drown

On her streets I rued
The day we met
Her damn cathedrals
Can’t forget

On the bridge of desire
Was where we kissed
From the roof we leapt
In a springtime tryst

Now as windmills turn
Against a red sunset
There’s nothing to lose
The impression I get

Is it far to Paris
Is it long to go?
Is she waiting still?
How I long to know
