[Vlad:] Voila, mes amis! Here’s Paris! Now that we’re here, follow me! Begin with the view As you stroll down “la rue”
[Parisians:] And soon all Paris Will be singing to you! Paris holds the key to your heart And all of Paris plays a part Paris turned a page To the new modern age!
[Vlad:] And we’ll do it, too, if we’re smart!
[Vlad & Parisians:] The French have it down to an art!
[Parisians:] Everyone’s a writer Painter! Poet! Everything is avant garde or chic!
[Vlad:] We’ll be in the know Before we know it!
[All:] When you’re in the know, it’s… Oh it’s magnifique! To find in Paris what you seek
[Dmitry:] Paris holds the key to her fate We won’t have much longer to wait And then, come what may We will each go our way
[Anya:] I dreamed of a city Beyond all compare It’s hard to believe That I’m finally there
[Vlad:] At last there’s a future
[Dmitry:] There’s freedom
[Anya:] There’s hope
[Anya, Dmitry, Vlad:] In the air!
[All:] Paris holds the key to your heart The pleasures of life a la carte! Come dance through the night And forget all your woes! The city of light! How it glitters and glows! And one never knows what will start!
