You lie in peaceful slumbers
   But yet so proud
   So safe the second city
   Houses reach the skyline and
   Far below the narrow streets that sing
   With the movement of the crowd
  
   No break from daily changes
   As life goes on
   Secure as French men can be
   Fill your time with love and wine
   And in your heart you'll know as long as you
   There will always be a song
  
   Then on a winter's day
   With your face against the cold and rain
   In the wind there's changes
   The rivers rise
   The water grips the town - tears fill her eyes
  
   [Chorus:]
   I'm standing here which way to go
   The crossroads call, but they don't know
   Midnight, caught inside
   I'm standing here, could all be lost
   The crossroads call
   You've stood so long
  
   It weaves the strangest picture
   Of silky thread
   The shadows cast reflection
   Lyons as the water's bed
   Trees that stand look straight ahead
   And search for a sight of distant land
  
   This was a winter's day
   In your heart you felt the cold and rain
   Change the wind to silence
   There's not a sound
   Silver patterns run and dance
   Upon the ground
  
   [Chorus]
