Big Bob Young: Music
If We'd Had Paris
(Big Bob Young)
INSPIRATION; A good friend of mine proposed to his significant other atop the Eifel Tower on a trip to Paris. Not long after that I was rekindling an old flame and I thought to myself "Maybe if we'd have had Paris things would be different".
LYRICS:
IF WE’D HAD PARIS
Maybe if we’d have had Paris things would be different
The lights of the city drive women wild
Maybe if we’d have had Paris things would be different
Maybe I’d be the one holding you now
I saw how your eyes shined
That day when a friend of mine
Told how he proposed
Atop the old Eiffel Tower
Maybe if we’d have had Paris things would be different
Maybe I’d be the one holding you now
Maybe if we’d have had Paris things would be different
The city of love casting its spell
Maybe if we’d have had Paris things would be different
Maybe you would be mine you can never tell
The Seine in the moonlight
Who can resist such a sight
Romance
flowing like wine.
Maybe if we’d have had Paris things would be different
Maybe if we’d have had Paris you would be mine
Lead:
Bartender pour me just one more glass
Of your finest French wine
I’ll be right here remembering
How maybe if we’d have had Paris she would be mine
How maybe if we’d have had Paris she would be mine.
