Moonlight Over Paris Lyrics

[Intro]
It's been a while, my baby, since you've gone
You've got me while I'm crazy all alone
Du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du


[Verse 1]
You say you've been overseas, I say over where
You say just a holiday, my Alsatian heir
I say I've been working late, working overtime
Haven't seen the sun since sixty-nine

[Chorus]
Does the moonlight shine on Paris
After the sun goes down?
If the London Bridge is falling
Would anybody hear a sound?
If you follow that sunset, will it ever end?
Oh, does the moonlight shine on Paris?
Oh-oh-oh, du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du

[Verse 2]
Oh and how can you just walk away
Was it something that I said?
I see only black and white
You see green and red
You believe in the miracle
Water into wine
I'll believe it when it makes the New York Times
[Chorus]
Does the moonlight shine on Paris
After the sun goes down?
If the London Bridge is falling
Would anybody hear a sound?
If you follow that sunset, will it ever end?
Oh, does the moonlight shine on Paris?
Will it ever end?
Du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Oh-oh, does the moonlight shine on Paris
After the sun goes down?
If the London Bridge is falling
Would anybody hear a sound?
If you follow that sunset, will it ever end?
Does the moonlight shine on Paris?

[Outro]
Oh-oh, does the moonlight shine on Paris
After the sun goes down?
If the London Bridge is falling
Would anybody hear a sound?
If you follow that sunset, will it ever end? (Will it ever end?)
Does the moonlight shine on Paris?
Will it ever end?
Will it ever end?
Will it ever end?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
