He Went To Paris
He went to Paris looking for answers To the questions that bothered him so He was impressive, young and aggressive Saving the world on his own
The warm summer breezes and French wine and cheeses Put his ambitions at bay Summers and winters scattered like splinters And four to five years slipped away
He went to England, played the piano And married an actress named Kim They had a good life, she was a fine wife And bore him a young son named Jim
All of the answers to most of the questions Locked in his attic some day But he liked the quiet clean country living And twenty more years skipped away
The war took his baby, the bombs killed his lady And left him with only one eye Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com His body was battered, his whole world was shattered And all he could do was just cry
While the tears were falling He was recalling the answers that he never found Hopped on a freighter, skated the ocean And left England without a sound
Now he lives in the islands, fishes the pilings And drinking his Green Label each day Writing his memories, losing his hearing But he don't care what most people say
After 86 years of perpetual motion If he likes you he'll smile and say Some of it's magic, some of it's tragic But I had a good life all the way
He went to Paris looking for answers To the questions that bothered him so
