Don't talk to me of love. I've had an earful And I get tearful when I've downed a drink or two. I am one of your talking wounded. I am a hostage. I am maroonded. But I am in Paris with you.

Yes, I am angry at the way I've been bamboozled And resentful at the mess that I've been through. I admit I am on the rebound And I don't care where are we bound.
I am in Paris with you.

Do you mind if we do not go to the Louvre, If we say sod off to sodding Notre Dame If we skip the champs Elysees And remain here in this sleazy Old hotel room Doing this or that To what and whom Learning who you are, Learning what I am.

Don't talk to me of love. Let's talk of Paris, The little bit of Paris in our view. There's that crack across the ceiling And the hotel walls are peeling And I am in Paris with you.

Don't talk to me of love. Let's talk of Paris. I am in Paris with the slightest thing you do. I am in Paris with your eyes, your mouth, I am in Paris with all points south. Am I embarrassing you? I am in Paris with you.

Came on the Poetry List. Good poem.
