Do you remember Paris?
We met on Île-Saint-Louis
I told you about the monuments
You made fun of my accent
Do you remember Paris?
I wasn't good in history
To talk with you, to be usefull
Yes, I invented a little
I'm not sure that Paul Verlaine
Used to live by the Seine
And I still don't know really
What is the Conciergerie
Do you remember Paris?
I told you: «Vous êtes jolie»
You had a city guide in hand
I had a few ideas in mind
Do you remember Paris?
A restaurant place Clichy
I chose the wine pretending
To know what I was doing
Do you remember me?
The next morning, Roissy!
We kissed goodbye, you took your plane
I never saw you again
Do you remember Paris?
Do you remember me?
Mon accent est toujours là
Et moi? Moi, je me souviens de toi
Quand je m'balade au bord de la Seine
Je pense à une Américaine!
Do you remember Paris?
We met on Île-Saint-Louis
I told you about the monuments
You made fun of my accent
Do you remember Paris?
I wasn't good in history
To talk with you, to be usefull
I invented a little
I'm not sure that Paul Verlaine
Used to live by the Seine
And I still don't know really
What is the Conciergerie
