Francis
There was a time
Not long ago
I wandered far
In the undertow
Made a stop in Borneo
Where I met a girl from Idaho
Her name was Francis
She called me the same
And in the Moonlight
We sang this refrain
Francis from another planet
By any other name, Francis
We stroll through a café
Painted by van Gogh
Sipping wine beneath the street light
Château 24
The clock strikes 12
She's running for the door
Like Cinderella
The seasons pass so quickly
Left me crying in my Bordeaux
Last I heard she was in Moscow
The dominatrix of some generalissimo
Absurdities abound here
Yes, I know
Bits and pieces never add up
To the whole
Her name was Francis
She called me the same
And in the Moonlight
We sang this refrain
Francis from another planet
By any other name, Francis
We stroll through a café
Painting by van Gogh
Sipping wine beneath the street light
Château 24
The clock strikes 12
She's running for the door
Like Cinderella
Just like
Cinderella
Not long ago
I wandered far
In the undertow
Made a stop in Borneo
Where I met a girl from Idaho
Her name was Francis
She called me the same
And in the Moonlight
We sang this refrain
Francis from another planet

We stroll through a café
Painted by van Gogh
Sipping wine beneath the street light

The clock strikes 12
She's running for the door

Left me crying in my Bordeaux
Last I heard she was in Moscow

Bits and pieces never add up
To the whole

Sipping wine beneath the street light
Château 24
The clock strikes 12
She's running for the door
Like Cinderella
Just like
Cinderella
