Paris Loves Lovers (from Silk Stockings) - Fred Astaire, Cyd Charisse & Carol Richards, Fred Astaire, Carol Richards

Gaze on the glistening lights below and above

Oh, what a night of nights for people in love

No city but this my friend, no city I know

Gives romance such a chance to grow and grow

Paris loves lovers, for lovers it’s heaven above

Paris tells lovers, love is supreme, wake up your dream and make love

Only in Paris one discovers the urge to merge with the splurge of the spring

Paris loves lovers for lovers know that love is everything

Paris loves lovers, for lovers it’s heaven above

(Capitalistic, characteristic, sensualistic, they should be atheistic)

Paris tells lovers, love is supreme, wake up your dream and make love

(Imperialistic, I’m pessimistic, that’s anti communistic)

Only in Paris one discovers the urge to merge with the splurge of the spring

(Militaristic, you’re optimistic, du jour propaganda)

Paris loves lovers for lovers know that love is everything

(Unrealistic, is individualistic and not at all collectivistic but a low

Totalitarianistic thing)
