From the recording On The Metro To Anvers
Lyrics
On the Metro to Anvers
Just going anywhere
I saw them standing there
On the Metro to Anvers
She plants a kiss on his neck
He reciprocates avec
Un baiser dans son cou
It was the only thing to do
And I’m looking out for souvenirs
Something small to keep and take back home with me
To remind me where I’ve gone
On the Metro to Anvers I can see
All of the world in front of me
At the Place d’Italie
She gets on and sits near me
She smiles and looks away
And I look for the French to say
I wonder if, peut etre
I could get to know her better
Avec un peu de vin
So I say “bonsoir madame”
Could you help me find some souvenirs
Something small to keep and take back home with me
To Remember where I’ve gone
On the Metro to Anvers I can see
All of the world in front of me
Dans le Metro a Anvers je peux voir
Le monde entier devant moi
