the loveliness of paris
seems someshow sadly gay
the glory that was rome
is of another day
I've been terribly alone
and forgotten in manhattan
i'm going home
to my city by the bay
i left my heart
in sanfrancisco
high on the hill
it calls to me.
to be where little cables cars
climb halfway to the stars!
the morning fog may chill the air.
I don't care!
my love waits there in Sanfrancisco
above the blue and windy sea.
when I come home to you
sanfrancisco
your golden sun will shine for me!
