I don't know if I was cruel or kind
Can't you tell me though, if I still cross your mind
Oh Valentino got a medal
Ah he got wounded in a battle
He knew you when you were a cowgirl
He still has your buckskin saddle
Out there tonight, on the French Riviera
You'll be waltzing light, to a saxophone
On those Valbonne cobblestones
How I wish I was near you, but no.
We were drinking on the terrace
And I raised a glass to Paris
Then I made off with the chalice
With the devil as my witness
And outside by the stairs I can hear little whispers
As Esmeralda stares into my blood shot eyes
Tonight we'll cut all ties and she'll meet up with her sisters and go
Of course I knew, trouble was brewing.
Your seaside charm would be my undoing
Life on the coast was giving me the blues
Just when i needed you most, you cut me loose
Out there tonight on the French Riviera
You'll be waltzing light to an old mans saxophone
On those Valbonne cobblestones
When you cry out will they hear you, no
