TOOK THE LAST TRAIN

David Gates

Took the last train to Saint-Tropez

Had in mind to dance the night away

Experimented with a cognac-high

When in France you give everything a try


Soon the crowd dwindled down to two

Not a soul around but me and you

You just smiled in French and took my hand

Spoke the words I tried my best to understand

You're telling me:


Viens chez-moi

Ce soir va jamais terminer

On vont rester toujours ensemble

You're telling me:

Come with me

Tonight will last forever

We will stay together always


Woke the next day and found a note

Love You, Goodbye - that's all she wrote

Everynight down at the place we met

I wait for her and those sweet word I can't forget

You're telling me:
