The French Girl lyrics

The French Girl (Tyson/Fricker)

Three silver rings on slim hands waiting
Flash bright in candlelight through someday's early morn'

We found a room that rainy morning
She took my hand through winding roads and led me home

Some red French wine when later waking
In her warm hideaway she smiled and combed her hair

She laughed each time I asked her name
Made promises to meet again
But her friends down on at the French cafe
Had no English words for me

So you may find above the border
A girl with silver rings, I never knew her name

You're bound to lose, she's too much for you
She'll leave you lost one rainy morn', you won't be the same

She laughed each time I asked her name
Made promises to meet again
But her friends down on at the French cafe
Had no English words for me
