They went to see Paris it was the 17th of May
And now as ever she was late
And now as ever she complained about the seating
And the salmon was the worst she ever ate
He was a little bit too easy
A little bit too happy she could see
He sees them sitting at a sidewalk restaurant
And it is spring and they are young and they are free
She said that if we hope to see it all within a week
We better make a plan and keep it steady
He said: I'm having a fantastic time already
They were going to a party just before the end of March
And now as ever she was late
And now as ever she's unhappy with her hair
And wonders how he got his shoes in such a state
He was a little bit too easy
A little bit too happy for her taste
He sees them opening a bottle of champagne
And they are joining in a lovers' sweet embrace
She said that if this evening was to turn out as they planned
He'd better play his part and play it steady
He said: I'm having a fantastic time already
He was about to leave her, it was February fifth
And now as ever she was late
And now as ever she would speak of their affair,
She says, she simply can't accept this as their fate
He was a little bit too easy
A little bit too happy, she would moan
He sees himself in an apartment down the road
Where he can dream his dreams in peace and be alone
She said to him I'll show you we can have good times again
But only if you play the straight and steady
He said: I'm having a fantastic time already
