Original lyrics
ENOne night along the river at st. germain de pre, i first met my
Beloved at a small sidewalk cafã©.
We walked along the river, the shadows passing by but we only
Saw each other, the shining water and the sky.
Chorus:
The seine, the seine, when will i again meet her there, greet
Her there on the moonlit banks of the seine?
Standing there across the river, mid sound of horn and tram, in
All her quiet beauty, the cathedral notre dame,
And as we passed beside her, i said a little prayer that when
This dream was over, i'd awake and find you there.
(chorus)
We walked along the river, 'till dawn was coming nigh. beneath
The eiffel tower we said our last good-bye.
There on that splendid morning, i left you all in tears and the
Beauty of that hour will shine within my through the years
(chorus)
The seine, the seine, when will i again meet her there on the
Seine?
