Lyrics:

Even now, I can still you smiling
I can still hear your voice as you whisper goodnight
I can picture you now, as you first called my name
In a hotel in Paris, at the dawn's early light

Even now I still hate you for leaving 
I still hate you for silence, cold as the grave
And I don't hope she's happy, and I don't wish you well
And I still hope that you would come back here again

All your pretty songs, I guess still hold their tune
In another bed, another hotel room
Time after time
Time after time I'll be dreaming of shadows and lost in your arms

Sometimes now I imagine you sleeping
And I reach for your hand and pull you to me
But the moon keeps on spinning 
And the stars bow their heads
And I don't know I'll ever be with you again
