Down on Bowery they lose their Ball-eyes and their lip-mouths in the night And stumbling through the streets they say "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 Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas Ah ah ah ah Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas And down on Lexington they're wearing New shoes stuck to aging feet And close their eyes and open And they'll 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 wont you stay the night? Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas Ah ah ah ah Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas Ah ah ah ah Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas Down in Bronxy-Bronx the kids go Sledding down snow-covered slopes And frozen noses, frozen toes The frozen city starts to glow And yes, they know that it'll melt And yes, the 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 Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas Ah ah ah ah Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Chere Ne Me Quitte Pas Ah ah ah ah Ne Me Quitte Pas, Mon Chere 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 Oh I love, I love, in the rain Oh I love, I love, in the rain Oh I love, I love, in the rain
