I was walking down the Champs d’Elysee
I had nothing much to do that day
I stopped and had a glass of Beaujolais
I was thinking of you
Yeah I had a glass of wine or two
Tried to act just like those French folk do
Even spoke some of their voulez-vous
I was thinking of you

Saw where Picasso and his pals all played
I saw the water lilies by Monet
Got a little lost in Marais
I was thinking of you
Walked through the Louvre although it took a while
Those paintings go on there for miles and miles
Stopped and watched the Mona Lisa smile
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you, oooo
I was thinking of you

I had some coffee it was really strong
I hears some fellow playing Dylan songs
Stopped on the bridge and watched the Seine roll on
I was thinking of you
I saw a couple as a show got out
Their tongues were lost inside each other’s mouths
I wondered how they’d ever get them out
I was thinking of you
I was thinking of you, oooooh
I was thinking of you
