The loveliness of paris seems somehow 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 the city by the bay I left my heart in san francisco High on a hill, it calls me To be where a little cable car climbs halfway to the stars The morning far may chill the air I don't care - my love waits there in san francisco Above the blue and windy sea When i come home to you san francisco Your golden sun will shine for me To be where a little cable car climbs halfway to the stars The morning far may chill the air I don't care - my love waits there in san francisco Above the blue and windy sea When i come home to you san francisco Your golden sun will shine for me
