John Denver - A Country Girl In Paris Lyrics
This song appears on four albums, and was first released on the higher ground album, and has also been released on the a portrait, the gift you are and the john denver collection - annies songMs.A country girl in paris, moonlight on the seineMemories of tennessee, nashville in the rainIts such a contradiction, a heart thats filled with painA country girl in paris, dreamin nashville in the rainShe walks along the boulevard, champs alyseeThinks about a country boy three thousand miles awayPride is such a hard thing, its such a price to payTo be all alone in paris with true love so far awayUp upon mont martre when she stops to rest awhileAll the artists look at her and they long to paint her smileFor even in her sorrow theres something in her eyesThat makes the young men jealous, makes the old men sighThey say the loss of innocence is always linked to painFor once the heart is opened nothing ever is the sameAnd so the evening lends itself to lovers and romanceThe way to heal a broken heart is to give true loveOne more chanceA country girl in paris, moonlight on the seineMemories of tennessee, nashville in the rainIts such a contradiction, a heart thats filled with painA country girl in paris, dreamin nashville in the rainA country girl in paris, longing for nashville in the rainWords and music by john denver
