Down on 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 in Lexington they're waiting 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
Oh oh oh
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'll melt and
Yes they know New York'll 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
Oh oh oh
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
