Frenchman For The Night Lyrics - Jimmy Buffett

Frenchman for the night 

By: jimmy buffett, roger guth 

1994 

>from his driftwood castle 

Comes a song I've 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 

He's a frenchman for the night 

By the light of the moon 

It'll 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 he'd only known 

How the years would fly on by 

Such a simple crime 

He's run out of time 

So he reaches for the sky 

Photos 

Chorus: 

By the light of the moon 

He's a frenchman for the night 

By the light of the moon 

It'll be all right 

Blame it on the champs elysees 

Blame it on a tune 

Blame it on the stroke of monet 

But you can't escape the moon 

You can't escape the moon. 

He sees the stars above 

As the floor to heavens light 

While the angels taunt 

C'est une nuit blanche 

He's a frenchman for the night. 

>from a driftwood castle 

Comes a song I've heard before 

Scratchy grammophone 

Cuts to the bone 

La vie en rose arpeggios 

Chorus: 

By the light of the moon 

He's a frenchman for the night 

By the light of the moon 

It'll be all right 

By the light of the moon 

He's a frenchman for the night 

By the light of the moon 

It'll be all right
