Rosanne Baker Thornley - IN PARIS

I got on a plane cause
Had to meet you in Paris
That was the plan
We climbed the stairs
to Montmartre, up to where
the painters paint portraits
in the square

And it wasn’t the first time and it won’t be the last
And I could not help but think just take this in
cause it all goes by so fast

Chefs in white aprons
Cafe tables of patrons
Waiting to dine
The night was amazing
sharing, talking and tasting
such a fine, bottle of wine

And it wasn’t the first time and it won’t be the last
And I could not help but think just take this in
cause it all goes by so fast

Nothing could prepare us
for when I left you there in Paris
and kissed you goodbye

I remember you wanting
your own Parisienne drawing
a piece of the weekend
to keep
You picked the chair
and I paid the artist
Watching you smile woulda broken my heart if

And it wasn’t the first time and it won’t be the last
And I could not help but think just take this in
cause it all goes by so fast

Nothing could prepare us
for when I left you there in Paris
and kissed you goodbye
I just knew that this trip
Was definitely different
When I kissed you goodbye

It wasn’t the first time and it won’t be the last
I could not help but think just take this in,
I could not help but think just take this in
I told myself don’t think, just take this in
Cause it all goes by so fast
