Subject: RE: Song About the River Seine
No, wait...wait,
That's not right.
If I supply you with all the pieces I can remember, maybe you can put them in the correct order, hey?

And there across the river,
Mid sound of horn and tram
In all her quiet beauty,
the Cathedral Notre Dame,
And as we walked beside her,
I said a little prayer
That when this dream was over
I'd awake and find you there...oo-oo etc.

We walked along the river
shadows passing by
We only saw each other
The shining water and the sky..oo-oo etc.

So I think that Notre Dame is the second verse, the quatrain above is the end of the first verse, and I'm missing the end of the (third) last verse. Still, that ain't bad for something I learned at camp when I was 14.
Blessings,
Barbara
