MOON
jive
| This is for Paris, and even more for its girls. |
Lyrics:
I've only met you once or twice
But it feels I've known you all my life:
I could point you out across the street
To see if I've got your name right.
And the people are in the air
Just high enough to touch their dreams;
With the stars at their finger tips,
That's when you crossed the street.
When the streets are empty in Paris town,
When the streets are paved with gold,
We can do the moon jive by the glow
Of the lights that you behold
In your eyes, that sparkle in the night --
A cigarette in search of a light, and
When the Eiffel Tower falls to the ground,
I'll hold your hand when no one's around.
We'll walk aimlessly through the streets:
You can whisper me your french
And I'll pretend to understand --
Let's smoke that cigarette!
And our shadows climb the walls
As the moon descends the deeps --
They're still doing the moon jive.
Come on now, just dream with me.
