John Denver - A Counrty Girl In Paris lyrics

A country girl in Paris, Moonlight on the Seine

Memories of Tennessee and Nashville in the rain

It's such a contradiction; a heart that's filled with pain

A country girl in Paris dreaming Nashville in the rain

She walks along the boulevard Champs-Elysees

Thinks about a country boy three thousand miles away

Pride is such a hard thing, such a price to pay

To be all alone in Paris, with true love so far away

Up upon Montmartre where she stops to rest a while

All the artists look at her and they long to paint her smile

For even in her sorrow there's something in the eyes

That makes the young men jealous and makes the old men sigh

They say the loss of innocence is always linked to pain

For once the heart is opened, nothing ever is the same

So the evening lends itself to lovers and romance

The way to heal a broken heart give true love just one more chance

A country girl in Paris, Moonlight on the Seine

Memories of Tennessee and Nashville in the rain

It's such a contradiction; a heart that's filled with pain

A country girl in Paris dreaming Nashville in the rain

A country girl in Paris longing for Nashville in the rain
