The Rake Lyrics

Sous les ponts de Paris, lorsque descend la nuit
Tout′s sort's de gueux se faufil′nt en cachette
Et sont heureux de trouver une couchette

Hotel du courant d'air, où l'on ne paie pas cher
L′parfum et l′eau c'est pour rien mon marquis
Sous les ponts de Paris
Sous les ponts de Paris
Quel rendez-vous!

My darling, why I sing this song
Is easy to explain
It tells what happens all along
The bridges of the Seine

The vagabonds go there at night
To sleep all their troubles away
But when the moon is shining bright
My heart wants to sing it this way

How would you like to be
Down by the Seine with me
Oh, what I′d give for a moment or two
Under the bridges of Paris with you

Darling, I'd hold you tight
Far from the eyes of night
Under the bridges of Paris with you
I′d make your dreams come true

Oh chérie, je veux apporter mes bras
Je veux apporter mon coeur
Je veux apporter all my love

Sous les ponts de Paris
Lorsque descends la nuit
Under the bridges of Paris with you
I'd make your dreams come true
I′d make your dreams come true
