Paris Holds the Key (To Your Heart) lyrics
by Various Artists
[ACCORDION PLAYER]
Lovers!
[LADY FLOWER SELLER]
Ooh, La, La!
[SOPHIE]
Welcome, my friends, to Paris
Here, have a flower on me
Forget where you're from
You're in France!
Children, come!
I'll show you that French joie de vivre!
Paris holds the key to your heart
And all of Paris plays a part
[TWINS]
You'll stroll two by two
[FLOWER SELLER]
Down what we call "la rue"
[SOPHIE & ENSEMBLE]
And soon all Paris will be singing to you
Ooh, La, La
Ooh, La, La
Ooh, La, La
[MAURICE CHEVALIER]
Paris holds the key to l'amour!
[FREUD]
And not even Freud knows the cure
[AVIATOR]
There's love in the air!
[JOSEPHINE BAKER]
At the Folies Bergère!
[ARTISTE]
The French have it down to an art!
[ENSEMBLE]
Paris holds the key to your heart
Ooh, La, La
[SOPHIE]
When you're feeling blue
Come to Le Moulin
When your heart says don't
The French say do!
[CAN CAN GIRLS]
When you think you can't
You'll find you can can!
[CAN CAN GIRLS & SOPHIE]
Everyone can can can!
[SOPHIE]
You can can can too!
[CAN CAN GIRLS]
Whee!
Whee!
Whee!
[DIMITRI]
Paris holds the key to her past
Yes, Princess, I've found you at last
No more pretend
You'll be gone
That's the end...
[ENSEMBLE]
Paris holds the key to your heart!
[COUTURIER]
You'll be "tres jolie" and so smart!
[ISADORA DUNCAN]
Come dance through the night
[RODIN]
And forget all your woes
[SOPHIE & ENSEMBLE]
The city of light
[GERTRUDE STEIN]
Where a rose is a rose!
[SOPHIE & ENSEMBLE]
And one never knows what will start!
Paris holds the key...
[DIMITRI]
To her...
[SOPHIE & ENSEMBLE]
Heart!
Ooh, La, La
Ooh, La, La
