On the way to New York City I found myself in France
A broken engine on the plane left me one night in Paris
So I walked along the Seine, didn't know what else to do
Wandering around aimlessly and suddenly I saw you!

A cold night in December
(A cold night in December)
You were there alone with her
(You were there alone with her)
All these things I still remember
(All these things I still remember)
As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur
(As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur)
I was quite amazed
(I was quite amazed)
As snow would pass unto her*
(As snow would pass unto her)
You just said it's the French way
(You just said it's the French way)
As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur
(As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur)

Candlelight was casting shadows on your smooth and perfect skin
I couldn't get enough of you, but I had to go
A perfect night to remember, my first night in France
These two beauties without a name, I just met by chance

A cold night in December
(A cold night in December)
You were there alone with her
(You were there alone with her)
All these things I still remember
(All these things I still remember)
As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur
(As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur)
I was quite amazed
(I was quite amazed)
As snow would pass unto her*
(As snow would pass unto her)
You just said it's the French way
(You just said it's the French way)
As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur
(As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur)

But in the end it was just a dream
How it could have turned out!
Now I sit here with two dead bodies
Screaming my pain out loud
A cold night in December
(A cold night in December)
You were there alone with her
(You were there alone with her)
All these things I still remember
(All these things I still remember)
As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur
(As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur)
I was quite amazed
(I was quite amazed)
As snow would pass unto her*
(As snow would pass unto her)
You just said it's the French way
(You just said it's the French way)
As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur
(As snow was falling on Sacré-Cœur)
