The Green Pajamas

Queen Of Sunshine

Paris again before I die
I want to kiss you there under the April sky
And walk along the river
The birds would sing
To those hazel eyes that say everything
Those hazel eyes that say everything

In and out we keep the time
Like the wind ringing in the chimes
And the sin ringing in her hair
We will know when we get there

  chorus:
Queen of Sunshine Queen of sighs
Where the spell of sorrow dies
For the moon is in the eyes 
Of the Queen of Sunshine

Every tear from the crocodile
Is kept underneath her smile
She's seen tears that would fill the Nile
She's seen sanity put on trial

 (chorus)

I look around this windy city
And it's a pity to me
So many unhappy
Then I look at her
And she's so pretty to me
So pretty to me
So very pretty to me

Joy is blowing through the park
Or on the road to Joan of Arc
The kitchen cocktail afternoons
Our time always ends too soon

 (chorus)

Paris again before I go
I want to kiss you there
In the Paris snow
And walk along the river
Where I might sing
To those hazel eyes that say everything
Those hazel eyes that say everything
