Regina Spektor - Ne Me Quitte Pas Lyrics

Regina Spektor Lyrics

"Ne Me Quitte Pas"

Down in Bowery they lose their ball eyes
And their lipped mouths in the night
And stumbling through the street
They say, "Sir, do you got a light?
And if you do then you're my friend
And if you don't then you're my foe
And if you are a deity of any sort
Then please don't go"

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ah, ah, ah, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas

Down on Lexington
They're walking new shoes stuck to aging feet
And close their eyes and open
And not recognize the aging street
And think about how things were right
When they were young and veins were tight
And if you are the ghost of Christmas Past
Then won't you stay the night?

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ah, ah, ah, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ah, ah, ah, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas

Down in Bronxy Bronx
The kids go sledding down snow-covered slopes
And frozen noses, frozen toes
The frozen city starts to glow
And, yes, they know that it will pass
And, yes, they know New York will thaw
But if you are a friend of any sort
Then play along and catch a cold

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ah, ah, ah, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ah, ah, ah, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas

I love Paris in the rain
I love Paris in the rain
I love, I love, I love in the rain
I love Paris in the rain
I love Paris in the rain
Man, I love, I love, I love in the rain
I love, I love, I love in the rain

Down in Paris they walk fast
That is unless they're walking slow
And in cafes they look away
That is unless they look right in
And in the gardens I get lost
That is unless I'm getting found
And if you're the ghost of New York City
Won't you stick around?

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ah, ah, ah, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas
Ah, ah, ah, ne me quitte pas, mon cher
Ne me quitte pas

I love Paris in the rain
I love Paris in the rain
I love, I love, I love in the rain
I love Paris in the rain
I love Paris in the rain
Man, I love, I love, I love in the rain
And I love, I love, I love in the rain
I love, I love in the rain, in the rain
Oh, I love in the rain, in the ran, in the rain
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
