I can still recall Our last summer I still see it all Walks along the Seine Laughing in the rain Our last summer Memories that remain We made our way along the river And we sat down in the grass by the Eiffel tower I was so happy we had met It was the age of no regret Oh, yes Those crazy years That was the time of the flower-power But underneath We had a fear of flying Of growing old A fear of slowly dying We took our chance Like we were dancing our last dance HARRY & DONNA: I can still recall Our last summer I still see it all In the tourist jam Round the Notre Dame Our last summer Walking hand in hand Paris restaurants Our last summer Morning croissants Living for the day Worries far away Our last summer We could laugh and play And now you're working in a bank The family man, a football fan And your name is Harry How dull it seems Yet, you were the hero of my dreams I can still recall Our last summer I still see it all Walks along the Seine Laughing in the rain Our last summer Memories that remain
Where are those happy days? They seem so hard to find I try to reach for you But you have closed your mind Whatever happened to our love? I wish I understood It used to be so nice It used to be so good So when you're near me Darling can't you hear me? S.O.S The love you gave me Nothing else can save me S.O.S When you're gone How can I even try to go on? When you're gone Though I try, how can I carry on? You seem so far away Though you are standing near You made me feel alive But something died I fear I really tried to make it out I wish I understood What happened to our love It used to be so good So when you're near me Darling can't you hear me S.O.S The love you gave me Nothing else can save me S.O.S When you're gone How can even I try to go on? When you're gone Though I try, how can I carry on? So when you're near me Darling can't you hear me S.O.S And the love you gave me Nothing else can save me S.O.S When you're gone How can I even try to go on? When you're gone Though I try, how can I carry on? When you're gone How can I even try to go on?
Here's to us one more toast and then we'll pay the bill Deep inside both of us can feel the autumn chill Birds of passage, you and me We fly instinctively When the summer's over and the dark clouds hide the sun Neither you nor I'm to blame when all is said and done In our lives we have walked some strange and lonely treks Slightly worn but dignified and not too old for sex We're still striving for the sky No taste for humble pie Thanks for all your generous love and thanks for all the fun Neither you nor I'm to blame when all is said and done It's so strange when you're down and lying on the floor How you rise, shake your head, get up and ask for more Clear-headed and open-eyed With nothing left untried Standing calmly at the crossroads, no desire to run There's no hurry any more when all is said and done Standing calmly at the crossroads, no desire to run There's no hurry any more when all is said and done.
