Paris will always belong to lovers

Peering down upon elegant boulevards from the Arc de Triomphe lovers strolling along the Champs-Élysées imaginary strings, chords and sounds of violins begin to play, what more can one say.

A romantic cruise on the Seine, lovers kissing along her bank, roses later bought for his sweetheart, for a Franc. The sight of Notre Dame, sets young lovers hearts aflame. Hilltop view looking out toward the city from the Sacre Coeur, tourists in Montmartre shopping while on tour. The panorama of Paris atop the Eiffel Tower cause lovers hearts to skip a beat, the magnificence and grandeur of the city sets one's heart asunder, as surely as a lightning bolt, always follows thunder. Leisurely walks along rue Pigalle, catching the can-can at the Moulin Rouge. Days spent at galleries and museums and when Mona Lisa looks your way at the Louvre. Two hearts will be moved in sync as Mona Lisa smiles and winks two hearts beat as one. For, her smile will never fail to touch and move for, Paris will always belong to lovers.
