Don't Leave Me [Ne Me Quitte Pas] lyrics

Down on Bowery

They lose their ball-eyes and their lipped-mouths in the night

And stumbling through the street, 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 cher

Ne me quitte pas, ah ah ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

And down on Lexington they're wearing new shoes stuck to aging feet

And close their eyes and open

And not recognize the aging street

And think about the things were right

When they were young and veins were tight

And if you are the ghost of Christmas past

Then won't you stay the night?

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas, ah ah ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas, ooh ooh ooh

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas, ah ah ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

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 they know New York will thaw

But if you're a friend of any sort

Then play along and catch a cold!

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas, ah ah ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas, ooh ooh ooh

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas, ah ah ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher

Ne me quitte pas

I love Paris in the rain,

I love Paris in the rain

I love, I love, I love in the rain

I love Paris in the rain,

I love Paris in the rain

And I Love I love I love in the rain

I love, I love, I love in the rain...
