One night along the river
At Saint-Germain-des-Prés
I first met my beloved
At a small sidewalk café
We walked along the river
The shadows passing by
But we only saw each other
The shining water and the sky
The Seine, the Seine
When will I again
Meet her there
Greet her there
On the moonlit banks of the Seine
Standing there across the river
Mid sound of horn and tram
In all her quiet beauty
The cathedral Notre Dame
And as we passed beside her
I said a little prayer
That when this dream was over
I′d awake and find you there
The Seine, the Seine
When will I again
Meet her there
Greet her there
On the moonlit banks of the Seine
We walked along the river
Till dawn was coming nigh
Beneath the Eiffel Tower
We said our last goodbye
There on that splendid morning
I saw you all in tears
And the beauty of that hour
Will shine within me through the years
The Seine, the Seine
When will I again
Meet her there
Greet her there
On the moonlit banks of the Seine
The Seine, the Seine
When will I again
Meet her there
On the Seine
