Frenchman for the night

By: jimmy buffett, roger guth

1994

>from his driftwood castle

Comes a song Ive heard before

A scratchy grammaphone

Cuts to the bone

La vie en rose arpeggios



So the dream begins

And the song is amplified

Buy the beaujolais

On bastille day

He dances in the tide



Chorus:

By the light of the moon

Hes a frenchman for the night

By the light of the moon

Itll be all right



Well it takes him back

To the days of love and war

And the girl he knew

With eyes of blue

Waiting on the shore



If hed only known

How the years would fly on by

Such a simple crime

Hes run out of time

So he reaches for the sky



Chorus:

By the light of the moon

Hes a frenchman for the night

By the light of the moon

Itll be all right



Blame it on the champs elysees

Blame it on a tune

Blame it on the stroke of monet

But you cant escape the moon

You cant escape the moon.



He sees the stars above

As the floor to heavens light

While the angels taunt

Cest une nuit blanche

Hes a frenchman for the night.



>from a driftwood castle

Comes a song Ive heard before

Scratchy grammophone

Cuts to the bone

La vie en rose arpeggios



Chorus:

By the light of the moon

Hes a frenchman for the night

By the light of the moon

Itll be all right

By the light of the moon

Hes a frenchman for the night

By the light of the moon

Itll be all right
