Tokyo et Paris by Miyamoto Emiri & solita (ED of Nodame Cantabile Paris-hen) - French lyrics

As the lyrics of the song is in French, I will be providing the original lyrics. Please note that there are signs on the words which I'm unable to key in.





Title: Tokyo et Paris
Lyrics: solita
Melody / Arrangement: Ookawa Shigenobu
Performed by: Miyamoto Emiri (Violin) / solita (vocals)

Tokyo et Paris
Paris et Tokyo
Et puis toujours la musique
A Paris nou etudierons
En bonne harmonie

On se connait depuis l' enfance
On allait au cours de piano a cote
En face du grand marche
On jouait au square du quartier
A la marelle et au ballon prisonnier
Puis c etait le gouter

C etait la nos plus belles annees
Qu aucun souci ne pouvait alterer

Tokyo et Paris
Paris et Tokyo
Et puis toujours la musique
Tokyo et Paris
Paris et Tokyo
Et puis toujours la musique
A Paris nous etudierons
En bonne ensemble

(Interlude)

On s' est aime depuis toujours
Plein d' apprehension avant nos auditions
A la tombee du jour
Concerts prives tour les etest
Dans la grande salle aux immenses baies vitrees
Un ete enchante

C' etait la nos plus belles annees
Qu' aucun souci ne pouvait alterer

Tokyo et Paris
Paris et Tokyo
Et puis toujours la musique
Tokyo et Paris
Paris et Tokyo
Et puis toujours la musique, musique, musique
A Paris nous etudierons
En bonne ensemble...
