An American in Paris soundtrack – Stairway To Paradise lyrics

Performed by Georges Guetary
HENRI BAUREL:
Une chançon,
C'est Paris.
C'est Montmartre.
C'est Robinson.
C'est le jour qui je volerai pendant qu'un oiseau
Car l'amour est là à mon coeur
All you preachers
Who delight in slamming the dancing teachers,
Let me tell you there are a lot of features
Of the dance that carry you through
The Gates of Heaven
It's madness
To be always sitting around in sadness,
When you could be learning the Steps of Gladness.
You'll be happy when you can do
Just six or seven.
Begin today. You'll find it nice:
The quickest way to Paradise.
When you practice,
Here's the thing to know,
Simply say as you go:
I'll build a Stairway to Paradise,
With a new Step ev'ry day.
I'm going to get there at any price;
Stand aside, I'm on my way!
I got the blues
And up above it's so fair;
Shoes,
Go on and carry me there!
I'll build a Stairway to Paradise
With a new Step ev'ry day.
I'll build a Stairway to Paradise,
With a new Step ev'ry day.
I'm going to get there at any price;
Stand aside, I'm on my way!
I got the blues
And up above it's so fair;
Shoes,
Go on and carry me there!
I'll build a Stairway to Paradise
With a new Step ev'ry day.
With a new Step ev'ry day.
