He’s so lucky. I LOVE Paris in the springtime. I love Paris in the fall. I even love Paris in the winter, when it drizzles, and I love Paris in the summer, when it sizzles.

So, then, why don’t you stay? Just a little bit longer. Oh, won’t you stay just a little bit longer. Oh, please, please stay just a little bit more. Now if the promoter don’t mind and the roadies don’t mind, we can take a little time and we’ll leave it all behind and sing one more song.

Would that be Allentown?  
And we’re living here in Allentown  
But the restlessness was handed down  
And it’s getting very hard to stay  
Or are you in a New York state of mind?

Yes indeed. To be precise. She wore blue velvet. Bluer than velvet was the night. Softer than satin was the light from the stars. She wore blue velvet. Bluer than velvet were her eyes; warmer than May her tender sighs. Love was ours.
