Paris Holds The Key

[ACCORDIAN PLAYER]
Lovers!

[LADY FLOWER SELLER]
Ooh La La!

[SOPHIE]
Welcome, my friends, to Paris.
Here, have a flower on me.
Forget where you're from.
You're in France!
Children, come!
I'll show you that French joie de vivre!

Paris holds the key to your hear.
And all of Paris plays a part.

[ACCORDIAN PLAYER AND FLOWER SELLER]
Just stroll two by two
Down what we call "la rue"

[SOPHIE AND ALL]
And soon all Paris
Will be singing to you!
Ooh La La
Ooh La La
Ooh La La!

[SOPHIE]
When you're feeling blue
Come to Le Moulin.
When your heart says don't,
The French say do!

[CAN CAN GIRLS]
When you think you can't
You'll find you can can!

[SOPHIE]
Everyone can can can!

[SOPHIE AND CAN CAN GIRLS]
You can can can too!
Whee!
Whee!
Whee!

[DIMITRI]

Yes, Princess, I've found you at last.
No more pretend,
You'll be gone,
That's the end...

To your heart!

Come dance through the night

And forget all your woes

[SOPHIE AND ALL]
The city of light

[GERTRUDE STEIN]
Where a rose is a rose!

[SOPHIE AND ALL]
And one never knows what will start!
Paris
Holds the key...

[DIMITRI]
To her...

Heart!

[SOPHIE]
Ooh La La!

[ALL]
Ooh La La!
