lyrics

UNTIL I'VE SHOWN YOU PARIS © Tony King 1993
Well we can't stay in this place forever
I can see that it's making you blue...
It's not 'cause you’re poor that you want something more
And your spirit is telling you too...
We can't put it off any longer
'Cause the right time might never be here
...I'll take you somewhere you'll never forget
This is as close as a dream ever gets
And you'll feel like you're part of a painting still wet...
Is there anybody there who can answer my prayer?...
Don't blow up the world until I've shown you Paris ..
Don't blow up the world until I've taken you there...

There's a life that we live in frustration
And a life that we live in our minds..
And you know if we stay we will both dearly pay...
'Cause the blind are leading the blind ...
If you're not killed It must make you stronger...
But before you get too strong to feel...
I'll show you something you've known from afar
The sleeper will wake and you'll be who you are
Where greed is the peasant and love is the Tzar....
Is there anybody there..who can answer my prayer?...
Don't blow up the world until I've shown you Paris....
Don't blow up the world until I've taken you there...

We'll roast in the chestnuts of winter ..
And roll in the flowers of Spring
And put it back just as we found it….
It’ll stay with you, it’ll stay with you, it’ll stay with you, it’ll stay……
If we don’t blow up the world until I’ve shown you Paris ..
Don't blow up the world until I've taken you there...

about

Beautifully Mad image

Beautifully Mad Sydney, Australia

Breathtaking original music reminiscent of the beauty of James Taylor, some honey from Melody Gardot, a lyrical spice of Cohen washed down with some Waits-like humour. A musical flame that licks at the heels of Folk and Jazz
