Don't Leave Me (Ne Me Quitte Pas)

Down on Bowery they lose their

Ball-eyes and their lip-mouths in the night

And stumbling through the streets they say

Down on Bowery they lose their

"Sir, do you got a light?

And if you do then you're my friend

And if you don't then you're my foe

And if you are a deity of any sort

Then please don't go

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

And down on Lexington they're wearing

New shoes stuck to aging feet

And close their eyes and open

And I recognize the aging street

And think about how things were right

When they were young and veins were tight

And if you are the ghost of Christmas Past

Then won't you stay the night?

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Down in Bronxy-Bronx the kids go

Sledding down snow-covered slopes

And frozen noses, frozen toes

And frozen city starts to glow

And yes, they know that it'll melt

And yes, they know New York will thaw

But if you are a friend of any sort

Then play along and catch a cold!

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Cher

Ne Me Quitte Pas

I love Paris in the rain

I love Paris in the rain

I love, I love, in the rain...

I love Paris in the rain.

I love Paris in the rain.

I love, I love, in the rain...

I love, I love, in the rain...

I love, I love, in the rain...

I love, I love, in the rain...
