Postcard From Paris

Written by John Denver Dear friend of mine the weather's fine Today I saw some ruins of the Roman worlds decline So I climbed those Spanish steps You've heard so much about But Rome has lost its glory I don't know what it's about I wish you were here when the shadows falling And all the rushing traffics still I wish you were here When the bells are ringing on the seven hills I'll make my way to a small caf?BR> I wonder what you did today I wish you were here Dear one at home I just flew in from Rome Now Paris is a post card All decked out in colored chrome So I climbed the Eiffel Tower And I prayed at Notre Dame But I just can't find the romance And I wonder why I came I wish you were here on the Champs-Elysees Lovers walking hand in hand Wish you were here when they take one look at me And seem to understand This city of light is a lovely sight
