The Seine Lyrics

The Seine - Kingston Trio Rick in Macon
One night along the river at St. Germain de Pre,
I first met my beloved at a small sidewalk cafe.
We walked along the river, the shadows passing by
but we only saw each other, the shining water and the sky.
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh
(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.
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh
(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 left you all in tears
and the beauty of that hour will shine within my through the years
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh
(Chorus)
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again
C G7 C (or, just maybe, A CM7)
(SLOWLY) meet her there on the Seine?
