Lyrics
Paris in the Spring is so entrancing
But on a certain afternoon
Silver April showers started dancing
And I had ventured out too soon
But thanks to you a dream came true
Chorus
On a rainy day in Paris
Funny how you came my way
Shelt’ring in that small cafe
A vacant chair, then you were there
On a rainy day in Paris
Breathing on the window pane
Children playing in the rain
No passers by, just you and I
And then we drank a toast together
We laugh’d and sipped our wine
We joked about the weather
When April made you mine
On a rainy day in Paris
When you made my heart stand still
How can I forget the thrill
That lovely day love found the way
In Paris on a rainy day
Sung here by Vancha March:
