Song Lyrics

Paris, the city of lovers
Is glowing this evening
True, that's because it's on fire
But still, there's l'amour
Somewhere out there in the night
Her heart is also alight
And I know the guy she just might
Be burning for

A guy like you
She's never known, kid
A guy like you
A girl does not meet every day
You've got a look
That's all your own, kid
Could there be two?

Like you?
No way!

Those other guys
That she could dangle
All look the same
From every boring point of view
You're a surprise
From every angle
Mon Dieu above
She's gotta love
A guy like you

A guy like you
Gets extra credit
Because it's true
You've got a certain something more
You're aces, kid
You see that face
You don't forget it
Want something new?
That's you
For sure!
We all have gaped
At some Adonis
But then we crave a meal
More nourishing to chew
And since you've shaped
Like a croissant is
No question of
She's gotta love
A guy like you!

Call me a hopeless romantic
But Quasi, I feel it
She wants you so
Any moment she'll walk through that door
For

A guy so swell
With all you bring her
A fool could tell
It's why she fell
For you-know-who
You ring the bell
You're the bell ringer!
When she wants oo-la-la
Then she wants you la-la
She will discover, guy
You're one heckuva guy
Who wouldn't love a guy
Like you?

You got a lot
The rest have not
She's gotta love a guy like you!
