The Last Time I Saw Paris (Academy Adward 1941) (From Film: "Lady Be Good") - Kate Smith/Jack Miller/Orchestra

A lady known as Paris romantic and charming

Has left her old companions and faded from view

Lonely men with lonely eyes are seeking her in vain

Her streets are where they were but there's no sign of her

She has left the seine

The last time I saw Paris her heart was warm and gay

I heard the laughter of her heart in every street cafâ

The last time I saw Paris her trees were dressed for spring

And lovers walked beneath those trees and birds found songs to sing

I dodged the same old taxicabs that I had dodged for years

The chorus of their squeaky horns was music to my ears

The last time I saw Paris her heart was young and gay

No matter how they change her I'll remember her that way
