Analysis of A Dream of Paris
Tony Woodward 1946 (Cheshire)
Last night a dream again
A long walk to Paris
From deep in the country
A stolen bicycle and a broken drink
Long Legs
Come to get me in a limousine
Django plays a tango
All down Montmatre he stumbles
Looking for a phantom
In the night
Catches the last Train into
Gare Du Nord
Place De L'opera is singing again
In Boulevard Housemann
Searching for the house the room
What's it all about
