The Left Bank Lyrics by 坂本龍一 (Ryuichi Sakamoto), M (Robin Scott)

The Arrangement + Singles

1982

[Verse 1]
In the candlelight cafe
On the banks of the Seine
Where the poets are gathering
I'm tracing your name
[Verse 2]
To see your eyes laughing
I'd search everywhere
In the smoke and the ashes
For the memories we shared
[?]
[Verse 3]
Oh, red, red wine
She goes to my head
The blue cigarette
And your Italian bed
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
[Verse 4]
I love your French way
Your streets and your steps
As they twist and wind
The black silhouettes
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
[Outro]
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
On a warm summer's night
