Lyrics
Irving burgess
One night along the river at st. germain de pre, 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
Chorus:
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
(Chorus)
We walked along the river, 'till dawn was coming nigh. beneath the eiffel tower we said our last good-bye
There on that splendid morning, I saw you all in tears and the beauty of that hour will shine within my through the years
(Chorus)
The seine, the seine, when will I again meet her there on the seine?
