John Mcdermott - Postcard From Paris lyrics

Dear friend of mine the weather's fine Today i saw some ruins of the roman worlds decline So i climbed those spanish steps You've heard so much about But rome has lost its glory I don't know what it's about I wish you were here when the shadows falling And all the rushing traffics still I wish you were here When the bells are ringing on the seven hills I'll make my way to a small caf?br> i wonder what you did today I wish you were here Dear one at home i just flew in from rome Now paris is a post card All decked out in colored chrome So i climbed the eiffel tower And i prayed at notre dame But i just can't find the romance And i wonder why i came I wish you were here on the champs-elysees Lovers walking hand in hand Wish you were here when they take one look at me And seem to understand This city of light is a lovely sight The first bright star i see tonight I'll wish you were here Now i write this from the plane Drinking cheap champagne Wondering how two people got so far apart Wish you were here, here in london Where the rain is pouring down I wish you were here On this airplane headed back to new york town I'll never leave you alone again I'm coming home but until then I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here
