The Seine The Kingston Trio Written by Irving Burgess From their "At Large" LP This song did not chart as a single (ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh) (ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh) One night along the river at St. Germaine de Pre I first met my beloved at a small sidewalk cafe We walked along the river, shadows passing by But we only saw each other, the shining water, and the sky The Seine, the Seine, when will I again Meet her there, greet her there On the moonlit banks of the Seine? Standing there across the river 'mid sound of horn and tram In all her quiet beauty, the Cathedral Notre Dame And as we passed beside her I said a little prayer That when this dream was over I'd awake and find you there The Seine, the Seine, when will I again Meet her there, greet her there On the moonlit banks of the Seine? We walked along the river till dawn was coming nigh Beneath the Eiffel Tower we said our last goodbye There on that splendid morning I saw you all in tears And the beauty of that hour will shine within me through the years The Seine, the Seine, when will I again Meet her there, greet her there On the moonlit banks of the Seine? The Seine, the Seine, when will I again Meet her there on the Seine?
