Shawn Phillips – Parisien Plight II Lyrics

Artist: Shawn Phillips
Song: Parisien Plight II

Oh the city of a lover was a crystal jewel
As it lay ‘neath the wing
And i was on my way to a love so true
That i wanted to shout and sing

My mind raced ahead of that double armed jet
As it roared through the open sky, yeah
And all that i could think of was holding you then
And hearing your gentle sighs

Your breath and your kiss could take away
Well all of this mental strife
I’d been away for two long weeks
Lord, it seemed, seemed like all of my life

Oh my lady fair, we made love right there
And now you do not care
And i don’t want to have to bear the thought
The thought, the thought, the thought

Of you not, no, being there
And i do not want to be
Don’t ever want to be left alone
You know, you know it’s making me feel so sad

Make me feel bad
These lights in the city were burning bright
And i was coming in at eighteen thousand feet
And i knew that you were going to be there

And i just couldn’t keep in my
I couldn’t keep in my seat, yeah
I knew that you wanted to see me
Like i wanted to see you too

When i got there, the place was bare
And i could not believe it was true
I came back that very same day
And i stayed long into the night

How i wished that you could be there
I wished with all of my might
Oh my lady fair, we made love right there
And now you do not care

And i don’t want to have to bear the thought
The thought, the thought, the thought
Of you not, no, being there
And i do not want to be

Don’t ever want to be left alone
You know, you know it’s making me feel so sad
Make me feel bad
Oh the city of a lover was a crystal jewel

As it lay ‘neath the wing
And i was on my way to a love so true
That i wanted to shout and sing
My mind raced ahead of that double armed jet

As it roared through the open sky, yeah
And all that i could think of was holding you
Then and hearing your gentle sighs
Your breath and your kiss could take away

Well all of this mental strife
I’d been away for two long weeks
Lord, it seemed, seemed like all of my life
Oh my lady fair, we made love right there

And now you do not care
And i don’t want to have to bear the thought
The thought, the thought, the thought
Of you not, no, being there

And i do not want to be
Don’t ever want to be left alone
You know, you know it’s making me feel so sad
Make me feel bad

These lights in the city were burning bright
And i was coming in at eighteen thousand feet
And i knew that you were going to be there
And i just couldn’t keep in my

I couldn’t keep in my seat, yeah
I knew that you wanted to see me
Like i wanted to see you too
When i got there, the place was bare

And i could not believe it was true
I came back that very same day
And i stayed long into the night
How i wished that you could be there

I wished with all of my might
Oh my lady fair, we made love right there
And now you do not care
And i don’t want to have to bear the thought

The thought, the thought, the thought
Of you not, no, being there
And i do not want to be
Don’t ever want to be left alone

You know, you know it’s making me feel so sad
Make me feel bad
