Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The summer air was soft and warm
The feeling right, the Paris night
Did its best to please us
And strolling down the Élysée
We had a drink in each café
And you, you talked of politics, philosophy
And I smiled like Mona Lisa
[PreChorus]
We had our chance
It was a fine and true romance
[Chorus]
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
[Verse 2]
We made our way along the river
And we sat down in the grass
By the Eiffel tower
I was so happy we had met
It was the age of no regret, oh yes
[PreChorus]
Those crazy years, that was the time
Of the flower power
But underneath we had a fear of flying
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
We took the chance
Like we were dancing our last dance
[Chorus]
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, 'round the Notre Dame
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand
[Verse 3]
Paris restaurants, our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day, worries far away
Our last summer
We could laugh and play
[PreChorus]
And now you're working in a bank
The family man, a football fan
And your name is Harry
How dull it seems
Yet you're the hero of my dreams
[Chorus]
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
[Chorus]
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, 'round the Notre Dame
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand
[Chorus]
Paris restaurants, our last summer
Morning croissants
We were living for the day
