	Story Behind the Song I had been playing around with a descending chromatic chord pattern for a month or two. I don't think it's been done before. It worked so well, I decided to compose a samba* from it. I dedicate it to Paris Tirone, who helped me with lyrics. *Actually, it's not a samba. It's a Bossa. I'll probably rename it "Bossa Parisienne" one day. Lyrics Farewell To Paris, (Bossa Parisienne) Lyrics by Marc Ellis & Paris Tirone ________________________________ Now I say farewell to Paris, Not farewell to love; Darling, please don't embarrass us, What are you thinking of? One day, I'll return to Paris; If you like, I'll phone; Paris is eternal darling; But it's not my home; Standing here at Orly Airport, Waiting for my plane; Take a taxi home, my love; There's nothing to be gained; Let me say farewell to Paris, And fly away alone; Paris is eternal, darling; But it's not my home;
