This song describes impressions from my first visit to Paris, a city whose beauty and culture fascinate people the world over. In particular, the area of St. Germain des Pres, my favorite place, retains an exotic as well as nostalgic atmosphere, and many people gather at the cafes to enjoy their lives. So, St. Germain des Pres is the motivating image for this composition.
