Lyrics

The fading sun is soft and low
The bridge a breath away
He holds a lock inside his coat
Its promise tucked away

Initials carved in softened steel,
They share a gentle kiss
Then fasten it upon the rail
To mark a love like this

As carriage lamps begin to flicker
And time itself moves much quicker
Fireflies from fading night
Become butterflies in morning's light

On the love-lock bridge in Paris
Where lovers whisper Je t’aime
The river hums a quiet tune
That only plays for them

The Pont des Arts exhales the mist
Notre Dame begins to pray
Two souls aligned in fate’s design
While twilight melts to violet-grey

But years will pass and seasons turn
A fragile truth all hearts must learn
Does that first kiss their love's first gleam
Still shimmer in a faded dream

On the love-lock bridge in Paris
Where lovers whisper Je t’aime
The river hums a quiet tune
That only plays for them

On the love-lock bridge in Paris
Where lovers whisper Je t’aime
The river hums a quiet tune
That only plays for them

They may now become
But their melody always plays on
