Unter Dem Himmel Von Paris
Ina Deter
Under the Sky of Paris
Under the sky of Paris
there floats a song
the melody comes overnight
it sweeps everyone along
Under the sky of Paris
where happiness resides
lovers stroll around
and they can't escape the ride
Under the bridge at Bercy
there sits a philosopher
two musicians hang out, a few homeless folks
and thousands more, for sure
Under the sky of Paris
on this night
they sing the old song of a city
that fills you with pride
Close to Notre Dame
down underground
there lie tragedies
resting all around
a sailor plays accordion
hope blooms under the sky of
the sky of -
- all of Paris
Under the sky of Paris
a river flows
rocking the forsaken in their sleep
with a kiss, it shows
Under the sky of Paris
the world is bright
a paradise for birds
like a blue tent in sight
The sky of Paris
has kept its secret for
two thousand years, it only adores
this island in the light
When it smiles at him, then
it dresses in blue
and when it's feeling down
it rains over Paris too
When it gets jealous of
all the lovers around
it strikes back with thunder and lightning
piece by piece, it’s found
But the sky of Paris
can't stay mad for long
it sends a rainbow for reconciliation
just for us, where we belong
